The Recipe for Patty Cakes with Egg and Green Onion

Today we hankered for patty cakes with egg and green onion – a treat from our childhood days. As soon as first green onions appeared, our granny baked us such patty cakes. They require yeast dough made with sour or fresh milk. The cakes came out second to none, we wolfed them down with cold milk.

• 1.4 lb flour
• 1 ¾ glass (curdled) milk
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 0.05 lb yeast

Ingredients for filling

• 5 eggs
