Melt 1/2 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat.

Add 450g / 1 lb ground beef and fry undisturbed for 2 minutes.

Finely chop 1 shallot and add it to the skillet.

Season with 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, 1/4 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp coriander, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon.

Fry for another 5 minutes, then add 1/4 tsp sweet paprika and a handful of parsley.

Grate 1 large raw potato and squeeze out any excess moisture.

Add the grated potatoes to the cooked minced meat and mix well.

In a separate bowl, crack 2 eggs and add a pinch of salt.

Pour in 2 cups (500 ml) Kefir and mix well.

In another bowl, combine 2 ¾ cups (340g) all purpose flour and 1 1/2 tsp baking powder or 1/2 tsp baking soda.

Stir until the mixture is smooth and lump-free.

Grease an 8-inch (20cm) square cake pan with ½ tsp of butter or oil.

Pour half of the batter into the pan.

Layer the filling evenly over the batter, then cover with the remaining batter.

Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.

Bake in a preheated oven at 360°F (180°C) for 60 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.

Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before serving.
