  8. Knead the dough. It will stick to your hands a little , but it is better not to add flour if possible . Lubricate a suitable bowl with vegetable oil, lay out the dough and tighten the bowl with cling film. Put it in a warm place so that the dough rises. It should increase in volume at least 2 times.

  9. Place the dough on a floured surface and knead it. If you eventually have force majeure circumstances, as happened to me this time, you can put the crumpled dough in the refrigerator in a bowl covered with cling film. Nothing critical will happen to the dough during the day, but before further preparation of the pie, the dough should be held for some time, about 1-2 hours, at room temperature.

  10. Divide the dough into 2 parts, about 1/3 and 2/3. Roll out most of the dough according to the size of your mold plus the rim. I got a square split shape measuring 24 ×24 cm. This cake can be baked in a round or rectangular shape with a larger diameter, it just turns out a little lower.

  11. Cover the bottom of the baking dish with parchment. Lubricate the walls of the mold with vegetable or butter. Carefully transfer the dough, it is convenient to do it with a rolling pin, into a baking dish. Put the filling on the dough and smooth it out. Fold the edges of the dough to the center, pinch lightly at the corners of the pie. Then put the remaining dough on top. I cut the dough into strips and spread the resulting strips in a circle from the edges to the center. I made a bow out of the remaining strips. Cover the mold with a towel and let the cake come up for 20-30 minutes. Then brush the top of the cake with warm water and, if desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds.

  12. Bake the pie in a preheated 170-180°C oven for about 1 hour. If the top of the cake is very ruddy, cover it with foil. After 45-50 minutes, depending on your oven and the diameter of the mold, you can check the readiness of the pie with a wooden stick or a cooking needle. In my oven, the pie was ready in exactly 1 hour. Remove the finished pie from the oven, take out the mold and place it on the grill to cool. Cover the warm pie with a towel until it cools completely.
