Open meat pie with potato dough is a cozy dish of Russian cuisine that combines the tenderness of potato dough and juicy meat filling. The origins of such pies trace back to rural cooking where ingredients were maximally utilized to create hearty and aromatic dishes for the whole family. The soft and airy potato dough forms a base with golden edges, while the filling of pork, sweet pepper, onion, and tomatoes gives the pie a rich, slightly spicy flavor. The finishing touch is a mixture of cream, milk, and tomato paste that transforms into a delicate creamy layer when baked. The aroma of baked cheese adds an appetizing crust. The pie is perfect for a home dinner or festive table setting, warming the soul and bringing loved ones together.
