Kibinai
6 servings
50 minutes
Robertas Lukjanskis, chef of the Vilins restaurant (St. Petersburg), shared the recipe with us. "Kibinai are pies. The filling can be anything - lamb, pork, chicken with mushrooms. If someone is still having a two-day wedding, then on the second day they always serve kibinai with broth for breakfast. On the one hand, you cure your hangover with broth, and on the other, you have a pie for breakfast. They are mainly made with lamb. Vilnis has kibinai with rabbit and pheasant, and I suggest making the filling with chicken, it is also very tasty.
