Cheese pie made with yeast dough
Description
I love when a pie has a generous amount of filling. The combination of cottage cheese and hard cheese turned out to be excellent. Additionally, you can add various herbs: coriander, dill, parsley, green onions, or boiled eggs, vegetables such as peppers. Instead of yeast dough, you can use shortcrust pastry, but in my opinion, yeast dough is more suitable here—it pairs perfectly and turns out very soft. Serve warm or chilled. Perfect with tea.
