Dumplings with meat

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make dumplings with meat? To begin with, prepare all the products for the dough and for the filling. You can take any vegetable oil, white flour, of the highest grade, then your dumplings will not be dark. For the filling, I use boiled meat twisted into minced meat, but chopped into small pieces or fried with onions in a frying pan is also suitable. I have beef, but you can take any meat.

2. Step 2:

   

   Twist the boiled meat through a meat grinder and add salt and pepper to taste. You can flavor it with a little oil if the meat is lean. Or add a little fat to the minced meat. Mix the filling evenly.

3. Step 3:

   

   Prepare the unleavened dough. To do this, sift the flour with a slide, make a recess and pour boiled water at room temperature into it, add salt. Keep in mind that flour (or water) may take you more or less than indicated in the composition. Be guided by the consistency of the dough.

4. Step 4:

   

   Add vegetable oil to the flour and knead the dough, gently stirring the flour from the edges into the middle.

6. Step 5:

   

   Knead the dough until smooth on a board sprinkled with flour, and put it in a plastic bag for 15 minutes to rest, ferment. By the way, you can store this dough in the refrigerator for quite a long time, using it as needed.

7. Step 6:

   

   Then roll out the dough into sausages, cut into pieces of the desired size and roll out into mugs. Put a spoonful of filling on each circle. Dumplings can be very small, medium, and someone prefers large, with abundant filling. Cook the kind that your family loves.

8. Step 7:

   

   Seal the edges of each dumpling. I use a pigtail modeling method for beauty and durability. You can also prepare dumplings for the future - send the extra ones to the freezer and freeze.

9. Step 8:

   

   Boil water in a saucepan, add salt, add bay leaf to the water. Lower the dumplings with meat into boiling water and cook from the moment they rise for 3-5 minutes, depending on the size. When serving, add the onion fried in oil, cut into half rings. Bon appetit!
