Knysh has gained popularity among immigrants in new York, in fact, inexpensive product that turned into something more exciting. And nothing has changed since then.

Always baked, they are the perfect way to start the day, warm appetizer, to warm the hands during winter.

Cooking
In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 egg, oil, vinegar and water.
Liquid pour a little into the flour and mix.
Knead a smooth dough, no more than 1 minute (flour may need a little more, it depends on the eggs that you take). Put the dough back in the bowl and cover it with plastic wrap. Set aside the dough for an hour in refrigerator (can be stored up to 3 days)to 3 days).
Let's prepare the filling, poriem onion finely and fry until Golden brown. The filling can be varied, very tasty with buckwheat porridge with onions. You can add in the cheese filling. You can make a sweet filling, pureed pumpkin, etc.
Potatoes peel and cook in salted water until tender.
Boiled potatoes to mash, add butter, fried onions, pepper and if necessary salt. Leave to cool.
While the dough rested, its surface can form a drop of oil, it's not scary, just podlesice, its a little more. Divide the dough into two parts. On a well-floured surface, roll out first portion of dough into a very thin sheet, about 30 by 40 cm
Put the potato filling in the bottom part of the test, stepping back from the edge.
Roll the dough with the stuffing in the roll. The blunt side of a knife blade, carefully split the loaf into 5 parts, in the location section to rotate a little as if you wrapped the candy then cut at every turn and will sameples to form a sealed Knish.
It turned out such barrels, the finger is slightly pressed on the one side in place of the pockets, forming a dimple.
Here they Nishiki.
Put Knish on prepared baking sheet so that they do not touch. Whisk the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of water and cover the top of the Knish. Bake at 190 degrees until Golden brown.
A traditional Knish is accompanied by spicy mustard, but I like it with sour cream. Bon appetit.
