Ingredients

Quantity		Ingredient
2	cups	All-purpose flour
1	teaspoon	Baking powder
½	teaspoon	Salt
2	tablespoons	Vegetable oil
2		Eggs; lightly beaten
2	tablespoons	Chicken fat; melted
		Or vegetable oil
2	cups	Finely chopped onion
2	cups	Plain mashed potatoes
		Salt; to taste
		Freshly ground black pepper; to taste
1		To make the dough: Combine the flour,
		Baking powder, and salt in a
1	large	Bowl. Make a well in the center and add
		The oil, eggs and 2
1	tablespoon	Water. Gradually mix the wet ingredients
		With the
		Flour. Add up to 2 tablespoons more water
		If necessary. Knead the dough until it
		Forms a rough ball. (Personally, I do
		This part in my food processor.
		It makes wonderful noodle dough, which is
		What this is. KM)
2		Knead the dough on a lightly floured
		Surface until the dough is
		Smooth, about 6 minutes. Place the dough
		In a lightly oiled bowl, cover and
		Refrigerate for 1 hour.
3		Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
4		To make the filling: Combine the chicken
		Fat, onions, potatoes and
		Salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.
5		Remove the dough from the refrigerator and
		Divide it into thirds.
		On a floured surface, roll out one piece
		Of the dough into a thin rectangle
		About 10 inches long. Spread about 2/3
		Cup of the filling along one
1		Long end, about 1 inch from the edge. Roll up
		Like a jelly roll and pinch
		The the edges closed. Repeat with the
		Remaining pieces of dough and
		Filling.
6		Arrange the rolls on baking sheets. Bake
		Until browned, about 40
		Minutes.
