Russian Fish Plait – We Love God!

Revelation...is progressive, i.e., cumulative. God has not revealed Himself comprehensively at any one stage in history or in any one event. Revelation is a series of divine disclosures, each of which builds upon and unpacks or unfolds that which preceded it. Revelation moves from what is piecemeal and partial and incomplete (but always accurate) to what is comprehensive and final and unified. This contrast between the incomplete and complete, between the partial and the full, is not a contrast between false and true, inaccurate and accurate, but a contrast between shadow and substance, between type and antitype, between promise and fulfillment.

INSTRUCTIONS

To make the filling, place the half-fat spread, flour, milk and
parsley in a saucepan and whisk continuously over a moderate heat
until the sauce thickens. Cook gently for 1 minute. Add the chopped
eggs, flaked fish, mushrooms, and seasoning to taste. Remove the pan
from the heat and set aside to cool.  Preheat the oven to Gas Mark
7/220 C/425 F.  Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a
30cm (12 inch)  square. Lift onto a lightly greased baking sheet.
Place the filling in a 10cm (4-inch) wide strip down the centre of the
pastry, leaving approximately 4cm (1 1/2 inches) at each end. Brush
the pastry edges with beaten egg and cut 2.5cm (1-inch) wide strips
from the filling to the edge on both sides. Fold the strips over the
filling alternately to form a plait making sure that the filling is
completely covered and the ends tucked under.  Brush the pastry with
beaten egg and bake in the oven for 20-25  minutes until golden brown.
Serve hot, garnished with lemon slices  and parsley.  Converted by
