Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until blended. Beat 3 additional minutes on high. Stir in the remaining flour; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes., Place dough in a greased bowl; cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook beef and onions over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the cabbage, seasoned salt, garlic powder and pepper; cook until cabbage is wilted., Punch dough down; divide into 12 portions and cover. Working with 1 piece at a time, roll into a 6-in. square. Place 3/4 cup meat mixture in the center of each square. Fold dough over filling, forming a rectangle. Pinch edges tightly to seal and place on greased baking sheets., Bake at 350° for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot.

Steps:

• For the braised beef: Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Then add the beef shanks, browning deeply on each side, about 5 minutes per side. Set aside.
• Add the ginger, dried chiles and scallions and saute until fragrant. Add the soy sauce, wine, sugar, cloves, fennel, white pepper, star anise, cardamom and cinnamon stick. Return the beef to the pot, add enough water to cover and bring to a simmer. Cover and cook gently until tender when pierced with a fork, about 2 hours.
• Shred the beef with forks and set aside. Reserve 6 tablespoons of the braising liquid and mix with the hoisin sauce in a small bowl until smooth.
• For the wraps: Combine the flour, water and oil and knead until smooth and pliable, about 5 minutes; the dough should be slightly tacky. Cover with plastic wrap and rest for 10 to 15 minutes. The resting is important, don't skip it!
• Roll the dough out into a 10-by-14-inch rectangle and then roll into a log. Cut into 6 pieces. On a lightly floured surface, press down on your small piece of dough and roll into a circle, about 1/4-inch thick. Let rest for 10 minutes.
• Stretch each circle out until you can see light coming through the dough. Set aside with a damp cloth on top. When ready to use, heat up a little oil on a griddle or large saute pan over medium- high heat; the pan should be hot but not smoking. Place the wrap in the pan and cook until golden brown on one side. Then flip and cook until just cooked on the other side. Repeat with the remaining wraps.
• To assemble: Brush 1 tablespoon of the hoisin sauce evenly onto the less cooked side of the wrap. Evenly layer the beef onto the wrap. Add the cilantro, cucumber and scallions. Roll up, slice and enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir ground beef and onion until beef is crumbly, evenly browned, and no longer pink. Drain and discard any excess grease. Stir in cabbage and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Continue to cook and stir until cabbage is tender, about 20 more minutes. Set mixture aside to cool.
• Mix warm water and butter in a large bowl. Combine dry milk powder, sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and yeast in another bowl; stir into butter mixture. Add egg and gradually stir in flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until dough is smooth.
• Roll dough out to 1/4-inch thick on a lightly floured surface; cut into 4-inch squares. Scoop beef mixture into each dough square. Bring corners of a dough square together at the top and pinch corners together to seal. Place on a baking sheet, seam side down. Repeat with remaining beef mixture and dough. Cover rolls with a damp cloth and allow to rise for 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Add beef and mix well. Shape into two 6-in. rolls. Place six bacon strips side by side on a large sheet of waxed paper. Place one beef roll over bacon. Roll up, wrapping bacon around roll; secure with toothpicks. Repeat. Place in an ungreased 13x9-in. baking pan. bake at 375° for 45-50 minutes or until meat is no longer pink and a thermometer reads 160°. Discard toothpicks.

Steps:

• For the beef rolls: Sprinkle salt and pepper over each side of the sliced beef. Then spread a thin layer of yellow mustard onto each piece. Divide the pickle strips, bacon and onions onto each steak. Fold in the sides and roll to secure the insides.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown the rolls on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the rolls and set aside. Add the flour to the pan and cook until light brown to make a roux, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and reserve the roux in the pan to make the sauce.
• Bring the water to a boil in a large stockpot. Wrap each beef roll in a 11-by-7-inch piece of aluminum foil and twist the ends to seal the rolls tightly inside. Place the rolls into the boiling water and bring down the heat to a high simmer. Cover and cook in the water for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
• Remove the rolls from the water with tongs and reserve the cooking liquid to prepare the sauce.
• For the sauce: Heat the pan with the roux over medium heat and add the cooking liquid, stock, tomato paste, red wine and paprika. Simmer until the liquid is a sauce consistency (coats a spoon). Season with salt and pepper. Yield: 4 cups.
• To serve, unwrap the beef rolls from the foil. Spoon the sauce over each beef roll and accompany with mashed potatoes or noodles covered in sauce and a vegetable.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, warm milk, water, sugar and salt. Remove from heat, and mix in the eggs and yeast.
• Measure flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the flour, and pour milk mixture into it. Do not stir. Cover with a lid, and let stand for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Pour melted margarine into flour, and mix well. Add more flour if too sticky. Knead lightly. Cover, and let rise for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Shape the dough into rolls, and place on a baking sheet. Let rise again for 20 to 30 minutes.
• Bake rolls in a preheated 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) oven for 15 minutes, or until done.

Steps:

• 1. Place frozen rolls several inches apart on parchment covered baking sheets. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise at room temperature until double in size. This can take 3-5 hours so plan accordingly.
• 2. Brown the ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat. When the beef is about halfway browned add the butter, onion and cabbage. Then cook until the beef is browned and onions and cabbage are soft. Let it cool for a few minutes.
• 3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 4. Using your fingers work each dough ball into a circle patty looking like a miniature pizza dough. Scoop a rounded spoonful of hamburger mix into the center of the dough. Using your fingers bring up the edges of the dough and pinch to close. Roll gently between your hands to work the seams. Place back on the parchment paper seam side down. Continue working until all the dough balls are filled. Cover with plastic wrap for 30 minutes.
• 5. Whisk together the egg and milk. Gently and lightly brush the dough with the egg wash. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown rotating the baking sheet halfway through.
