1 lb hamburger

This Nebraska favorite seems to have Old World origins, what with the
cabbage and the fact it's encased in dough before baking. Some folks just
call it a cabbage burger. This recipe serves eight.
Brown hamburger and drain. Add cabbage, onion, 1 1/2 tsps salt and 1 1/2 cups
water. Simmer uncovered until water is gone. Set aside.
To make the dough, add yeast to 1/4 cup warm water with sugar in it. Let
stand 5 minutes and add remaining milk, flour and salt. Mix well and turn
out to knead. When smooth and elastic let rise in greased bowl. Roll into
20-by-10-inch rectangle. Cut into 8 squares. Dollop 2 tablespoons meat
mixture onto each square and pinch corners together over the top.
Let rise on a greased baking sheet about 10-12 minutes. Bake 30 minutes at
375 degrees.
