PorgandPiruka...carrot strudel

This is my favorite Estonian treat...PorgandPiruka. It's a wonderful yeast roll filled with a combination of carrots and a few chopped egg whites. Pirukas come in many forms and with many fillings. Typical is cabbage, chopped ham, or cheese. I recently was at a home that served a long twisted piruka filled with a thin strip of bacon. Cheap, filling and the perfect comfort food after trudging through the snowy sidewalks of Tallinn.
