Dagestan dish"Miracle"
The cuisine of the peoples of Dagestan is fraught with an amazing feature - with minimum set ingredients and a fairly simple recipe, it allows you to prepare a large number of dishes, each of which will have a unique, different taste. Dagestan dishes are colorful gastronomic mosaics with many unusual details.
The harsh conditions of highland life and the need for long and difficult work in the fresh air could not but affect the recipe for cooking. Dagestan cuisine is very nutritious, easy to prepare, but healthy at the same time.
The Dagestan dish "Miracle" can be called a vivid example of the variety of variations collected in one dish. It is a fragrant, thin, closed pie that can be prepared with the most various fillings... True, the Avars call this dish "miracle", other Dagestani peoples have their own names, for example, the Laks call it "kachi".
The uniqueness and versatility of these pies is that you can cook them all year round using the so-called seasonal fillings:
In the spring, Dagestanis cook them with an incredible amount of young greens. different types... It could be a miracle with nettles, green onions, halt (halt is one of the types of young grass) or beet tops.
In the summer, the filling is complemented fresh vegetables, young potatoes, delicate cheese or cottage cheese;
In the fall, a miracle with a pumpkin comes into its own. It should be noted that this species is the pearl of the Dagestan cuisine. It is loved by the Dagestanis themselves and everyone who has had a chance, at least once, to try it.
In winter, when the food should become as dense and warming as possible, a miracle with meat is most often prepared. This can be fresh or dried lamb or beef.
Chicken miracle is rarely cooked. Although, Lezghins have a terrific variety of holiday cake that is topped with chicken millet porridge.
There are also varieties of miracle stuffed with chicken and nuts, chicken and beans. These variations are very much in common with Georgian cuisine where chicken, beans and nuts are found in many dishes. And since a miracle is also prepared in Ingushetia, in Chechnya, in Kabardino-Balkaria, it can be safely called a Caucasian dish to a miracle.
In general, many species of the miracle have some kind of "nationality". For example, "Dargin miracle". Judging by the name, the idea for the recipe probably came to the Dargins. "Dargin Miracle" - very popular, favorite dish in Dagestan. It differs from ordinary miracles in that it is made not thin, but full, high closed pie, and baked in the oven, and not fried in a pan like the rest. Dargins love to add walnuts to a miracle with any filling.
But at festive events it is customary to serve the Avar miracle - Botischal. These are thin tortillas stuffed with potatoes and cheese. An unusual feature of the botiscal is that the cheese added to the filling must stretch well when melted. The result is the most delicate, thin cakes that simply melt in your mouth.
The most delicious are the miracles cooked in old wood-burning stoves. Unfortunately, you can't find such people in the city. And in the villages, these ovens have been preserved and are successfully used by many housewives.
The dough, unleavened, yeast-free is used for cooking, the only exception is the Dargin miracle, for which the dough must be either kefir or yeast. Miracle is fried in a dry frying pan without adding oil. In order for the finished miracle to become soft, immediately after baking, it is coated with ghee. You can, of course, use butter or sour cream for this purpose, but the taste will be slightly different.
For any miracle dish, the dough recipe, in principle, will look the same, but the filling recipes will differ. The exception, as already mentioned, will only apply to the dough recipe for the Darginsky miracle.
Dargin miracle
To prepare a dough on kefir you will need:
kefir -0.5 liters;
soda - 1 teaspoon;
salt 1.5 tsp;
flour - 1kg (this is about 5 glasses of 200g each).
All ingredients are mixed, the dough is set aside for 10 minutes to "rest", and you can start baking.
Yeast dough for dargin miracle
flour - 1 kg. (a little more flour will be needed when rolling);
warm milk - 0.5 liters;
butter - 200-205gr.;
a bag of yeast (25 gr.);
sugar - 1 teaspoon;
salt - 0.5 tsp. spoons;
soda - 1 \ 3h. spoons.
The dough is kneaded, covered with a napkin and placed in a cool place (possibly in the refrigerator) for half an hour. Then you can start rolling. You should not get too carried away with adding flour, since the dough should be soft.
The filling for the Dargin miracle is made from thinly sliced potatoes and thinly sliced pieces of lamb or beef (not minced meat). Quite often, Dargin pies are prepared with dried meat, but this option is not for everybody. To make the miracle juicy, it's a good idea to add a little fat to the meat. In Dagestan, fat tail fat is often added.
If fatty meat, for any reason, is contraindicated, then about half a glass of any broth is poured into a small hole in the upper part. During the baking process, the potatoes absorb the broth and become soft and juicy.
The dough is rolled out into two circles. The filling is laid out on the first, then it is covered with a second circle, and the edges are spliced into a neat pigtail. The cake is baked in the oven for about an hour. For a beautiful and golden brown crust, brush the top of the cake with an egg.
Classic subtle wonder
The preparation of the dough for thin miracle is as follows:
500 gr. flour is mixed with a glass of water, added to taste;
kneaded dense soft dough;
the dough is covered with a towel and left to rest for 15 minutes.
Next, the dough is divided into small pieces, each of which is rolled into a very thin circle. The filling is laid out on one half of the circle, the filling is closed with the second half and neatly, but tightly, splits. The splitting process can be simplified if you cut off the edge with a curly roller knife. It will hold the edges together and give the product a beautiful shape.
Miracle is fried in a dry frying pan, alternately on each side, until golden crust... The finished product is lubricated with oil.
Fillings for subtle miracle
Meat. Lamb or Ground beef mixed with minced onions. Salt, pepper, or other spices are added to taste.
Green stuffing. Finely chopped greens are mixed with cottage cheese or soft cheese.If you wish, you can add a little sour cream or kefir there, so the filling will be more juicy. Salt is added and, if desired, pepper.
Potato and cheese filling for Botischal. The potatoes are boiled and mashed into a nice, homogeneous puree. Grated cheese is added to it. It can be young cheese or Ossetian. If the cheese is salty, then you do not need to add salt to the filling. The ratio of cheese and potatoes is selected individually, according to your preferences. The secret of this filling is that you definitely need to add a small amount of quicklime soda, literally at the tip of a teaspoon. It is this trick that will make the cheese more viscous.
Pumpkin filling. The pumpkin is grated on a fine grater, mixed with finely chopped walnuts as well as lightly fried onions. Salt, pepper, spices are added to taste, but nutmeg opens up especially well here.
Miracle is a dish with a long history. Those who have tried it once will definitely want to continue to continue to discover all its variations.
Peel and wash the potatoes. Then it needs to be chopped into rings, this should be done as thin as possible. If you have a special grater or food processor, this will greatly simplify the slicing process and make it faster.
Season the potatoes with salt and pepper to taste and add raw minced meat to it. Beef is fine for this dish, but you can use pork, chicken, or lamb. Onion peel, chop finely and also add to the minced potatoes.
Add herbs and spices. You can use any seasoning you like.
Mix flour, yeast salt and warm water yeast dough... Put it in a bowl and cover or throw on a towel. After the dough comes up in a warm place, knead it and divide it into a couple of parts so that one is twice the size of the other.
Roll the larger piece into a layer as thin as possible, crushing it with flour.
Put the pre-prepared filling on the rolled dough and evenly distribute the meat and potatoes over it. Leave a couple of centimeters on the sides so you can pinch the dough.
Now roll out a smaller piece of dough and cover the meat and potatoes with it. Pinch the edges so that you get a pigtail, then the cake will not fall apart during the cooking process. Punch a hole in the center for steam to escape. Coat the product egg yolk which will give golden brown... Bake the miracle at two hundred and twenty degrees in the oven for about twenty minutes. Put the finished dish in a plastic bag for five minutes, then it will be even softer and juicier.
