Pelmeni

Two bowls with pelmeni and sour cream in background

 

Dough:

  • 3 cup flour (depending on brand, you may need to add more)
  • 2/3 cup luke warm water
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp salt

Filling:

  • 2 lb ground meat (chicken, turkey and mixing in ground beef)
  • 1 large onion grated
  • 1/2 tbsp salt to taste
  • 1 tsp pepper to taste
Dough:  Sift the flour with salt into a mixing bowl. Add eggs, mix the dough for a short bit, then add water to the dough.
Combine everything into a smooth texture by hand or using a Kitchen Aid mixer. Flour the working surface.
Filling: Combine together ground meat, grated onion, salt and pepper.
To make Pelmeni by hand, roll out the dough and cut out small circles using a cookie cutter. Place meat in the middle and fold over the sides into a half-moon shape, pinching the edges together. Connect the two corners together.
Bring a large pot of salted water to boil and add Pelmeni. You’ll know they’re ready once you see them float to the top. Take Pelmeni out using a strainer. Drizzle them with butter and serve with a side of sour cream.
