Pelmeni
Ingredients
2 cup of flour
1 cup of milk or water
1/2 tbsp salt
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 eggs
250 g beef
250 g pork
1 onion
salt, pepper.
Way of cooking
Grind beef and pork twice in meat chopper. Then add chopped onion, salt and
pepper. To make mince meat more tender and juicy, add a bit of milk. Leave it
in a cold place..
Mix flour with eggs and milk, salt and oil until a soft dough forms. Knead on
floured surface until dough is elastic. Take some dough and make a "sausage"
(1 inch in diameter). Divide into pieces (1 inch thick). Roll each piece so
that they are 1/16 inch thick.
Take a glass or a cup and make rounds with it on the dough. Fill each round
with 1 teaspoon of the mince meat, fold into half-moons. Pinch edges together
and connect the opposite sides.
Pelmeni can be frozen to be cooked later ( you can keep them in the freezer
for a long time), or cooked immediately. To cook pelmeni, boil much water, so
that they cannot stick to each other. Salt water. Carefully drop pelmeni into
boiling water. Don't forget to stir them from time to time. Boil for 20
minutes. Pelmeni are served with butter, sour cream or vinegar.
