  • Sift the flour through a sieve onto your work surface in a mound. Make a well in the mound and pour in the water and milk, then season with salt and pepper. Knead the dough by hand.
  • Dust your work surface with flour. Roll the dough out into a sheet about 2 millimeters thick. With a knife, cut the rolled-out dough into 3 by 3 cm squares.
  • Peel the onion and rinse it under running water. Grind the beef through a meat grinder into a bowl, then grind the onion. Add the water, pepper, and salt to the bowl and mix with a spoon.
  • Rinse the herbs under running water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. Chop them very finely.
  • Spoon some filling into the center of each dough square and pinch two opposite edges together with your fingers to form a triangle.
  • In a pot, bring the broth to a boil over medium heat, drop in the chuchvara, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Lift the cooked dumplings out with a slotted spoon.
  • Serve in individual bowls, sprinkled with fresh herbs — you can serve them right in the broth, the way we serve dumplings. Enjoy!
