    Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion until transparent. Add cabbage to it. Fry everything together for about 15 minutes, stirring constantly. Then pour water into the pan with vegetables so that it covers the vegetables. Cover the pan with a lid and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes. Then add salt and ground black pepper to taste, stir and simmer the vegetables for about 15 minutes without a lid, the liquid should completely evaporate.

The kulebyaka turned out simply excellent. I prepared the dough exactly according to the recipe. I doubled the amount of food so that we have enough for dinner and to treat our relatives. The dough kneaded very well, became smooth and easy to handle. I changed the filling a little, I didn’t add boiled eggs and sour cream, it’s just that my family loves the cabbage filling. I also added carrots to the cabbage. I had to take more cabbage because... I took a young one and during stewing it greatly decreased in volume) The kulebyaka turned out beautiful and tasty. The dough remained soft the next day, which made us very happy at breakfast) Thanks for the recipe)
