YAKAMISH

Steps:

• It's best to prep all ingredients before starting including preparation of rice. Heat sesame oil on medium high heat in wok or large skillet. Add garlic and cook until well browned, stirring constantly. Add onions, celery, and carrots. Cook until vegetables are tender, then remove and put aside. Brown beef in same pan and drain fat if necessary. Return vegetables and stir well. Add cabbage and stir well. Reduce heat to low and cover until rice is near done stirring occasionally. Remove lid and make bare circle in the middle of the pan. Pour eggs into circle and cook until beginning to firm stirring to avoid sticking. Stir into the rest of the mix. Replace lid for a few minutes until egg is cooked throughout. Add rice slowly until it blends with the other ingredients. Don't add too much rice. Season with soy sauce while in the pan and then stir once more before serving. Serve with soy sauce as an option.

SARAH'S KNISH

Steps:

• Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and allow to steam dry for a minute or two. Heat 1/4 cup of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Combine potatoes and onions in a large bowl; season with 2 teaspoons of salt, pepper, sugar, and garlic. Mash until smooth; set aside.
• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Beat eggs, 1/2 cup of vegetable oil, warm water, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Gradually stir in flour. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Divide the dough into thirds and roll each piece out to about 9x13-inches. Slice the rolled dough in half lengthwise, then spread the potato mixture down the center of each strip. Roll each strip around the filling and gently press to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling to end with six logs.
• Cut each log into 1-inch slices and place cut side down on the prepared baking sheet. Gently press the edges of the dough toward the center of the potato mixture to form a bun. Beat egg yolks and milk together in a small bowl. Brush each knish with the the egg yolk mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes.
