This is a family favorite. I always serve these turnovers with a large tossed green salad at family get-togethers. They freeze well, too.

1 large onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh mushrooms
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 egg
2 teaspoons water

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Stir in sour cream and egg yolk just until moistened. Shape into a ball. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until easy to handle.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the beef, onion and mushrooms until meat is no longer pink. Remove from the heat; drain. Stir in the sour cream, salt, oregano and pepper.
On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 3-in. round cutter. Place a rounded teaspoon of filling on one side of each circle; fold dough over filling. Press edges with a fork to seal. Prick tops with a fork. Reroll scraps; repeat.
Place on greased baking sheets. Beat egg with water; brush over turnovers. Bake at 450° for 12-15 minutes or until lightly browned. Yield: about 4-1/2 dozen.
