Saute onions and garlic in butter until tender. Combine bread crumbs and cheese. Roll dough out to a 7" x 9" rectangle. Place on baking sheet leaving a 1" border around edge of pastry.

Sprinkle with layers of 1/2 of crumb and onion mixture, then all the egg, salmon and dill, then remaining onion and crumb mixture. Drizzle with remaining butter and spread with sour cream. Combine egg and salt and brush pastry borders lightly with egg mixture. Roll out remaining pastry, 10" x 12". Fit over layer filling and flute edges well. Cut shapes with any leftover pieces of pastry to decorate top crust.

Brush pastry with egg mixture. Cut slits to allow steam to escape. Bake at 350º for 1 hour or until pastry is golden brown.
