Ingredients

Directions

Keep a tablespoon of butter separate and cut the rest into small cubes.
Mix the flour (keep two tablespoons separate for the filling) in a bowl with a pinch of salt and rub the butter through the flour with the fingertips until it becomes a crumbly mixture.
Beat the egg in another bowl.
Spoon the sour cream and half of the egg into the flour mixture and knead everything into a cohesive dough.
Keep the rest of the egg in order to cover the dough.
Form the dough into a ball and leave it wrapped in plastic wrap for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Cut the mushrooms and onion into small pieces.
Heat the tablespoon of butter in a frying pan for the meat mixture and brown the mushrooms and onion on high heat, letting the moisture evaporate.
Put this in a bowl.
Fry the mince in the same pan and let the moisture evaporate.
Add the minced meat to the mushrooms and add the sliced ham, chopped parsley and cheese.
Sprinkle two tablespoons of flour over it.
Mix everything thoroughly until it becomes a firm and sticky mixture.
Preheat the oven to 200 ° C.
Divide the dough into 2 equal pieces and roll it out on a floured surface to 8 x 20 cm.
Place a dough piece on a baking sheet covered with parchment paper.
Form the meat mixture on this dough piece into a rectangular bread, 5 cm high and around 2 cm smaller than the dough.
Put the other dough piece over it.
Brush the edge with the rest of the egg and press the edges with a fork.
If necessary, make leftovers of dough strips and place them crosswise over the top.
Brush the dough with the beaten egg.
Bake the pie in the oven in 35-45 minutes until golden brown and done.
Leave the pie out of the oven for another 10 minutes.
