Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, mix warm milk with a pinch of sugar and yeast. Set aside.
  2. In a shallow bowl or on a counter top make a pile of flour, with a hole in the middle.
  3. Add eggs, yeast mixture, sugar, and shortening. Mix all ingredients by hand and form smooth ball.
  4. Cut it in half. Roll each piece into flat thin rectangle. To prevent the dough from sticking and ripping, roll the dough on a piece of plastic.
  5. Peel and core the apples, and shred them on a cheese grader (big holes).
  6. First sprinkle some breadcrumbs (original) or Graham cracker crumbs, all over the dough, which will prevent the juices from the apples from soaking the dough through.
  7. Now spread the apples all over the dough(if apples are too juicy squeeze extra juice out before applying to the dough), leaving about 2 inches at the top empty.
  8. Sprinkle on top of the apples the following:
  9. 1/4 cup sugar 1/2 cup brown sugar 2 tbsp cinnamon 1/2 cup raisins Optional: nuts or coconut
  10. Now start rolling the dough up (like a cinnamon roll). To seal the roll, pull the top edge to the middle, facing top. Brush some water under the edge and press the two layers together. Now pinch the side corners together, sealing all the apples in.
  11. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper brush the top with egg wash and repeat the process with the other piece of dough.
  12. Place both shapes on one baking sheet and bake at 350 °F for 40 minutes. Dust with powder sugar before serving.

  1. In a medium pot heat oil, and sate onion until you reach gold color.
  2. Cut the meat into smaller, thin pieces. Add the meat to the onion and stir. Let all the pieces turn brown and then add salt, bouillon, pepper, and ½ cup of water. Stir together.
  3. The step you are about to do is very important; it will effect the color and flavor of the final gravy. Turn the heat to high and let all the water evaporate. Let the meat stick to the bottom of the pan. Watch it closely and don’t let it burn. You will know it is ready when you stir the meat aside and the meat will move, but will leave brown coating on the bottom, and won’t be easily scraped.
  4. Now it is time to add another ½ cup of water. Repeat this technique 2 more times. After the third time, add again the ½ cup of water.
  5. Prepare the mushrooms. Use only the heads. With a damp paper towel wipe the tops of the mushroom heads. Slice the mushroom into thin slices. Add the mushrooms to the meat along with 1 cup of water, and let simmer covered for 5 minutes.
  6. Add another 1 tsp of salt and 2 cups of water. Bring to boil, cover with lid, and turn down the temperature to medium low.
  7. Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes or till the meat is tender. According to how much water is left you may have to add another cup of water before thickening the gravy.
  8. In ½ cup of water mix 2 Tbs of flour, and add to the meat. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes.
