Dumplings fried in oil after cooking

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   From eggs, sour cream, salt and flour, knead the dough. Add the flour gradually. It may need a little more or less. The dough should be very soft, elastic, pleasant to work with. For the filling, boil the peeled and washed potatoes in salted water - you can cut it into 2-3 parts so that it cooks faster. After 30 minutes, drain the water and crush it into a puree. Add the chopped and well-fried onion, mix. The filling is ready.

2. Step 2:

   

   We form a small diameter tourniquet from the dough. We cut it into several equivalent pieces. We take one piece at a time and roll it out on the table with a rolling pin into a thin cake. Put a tablespoon of potato filling in the middle of the tortilla.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pinch the edges tightly, forming a dumpling. You can pinch dumplings in the usual or curly way, but I like the usual way more, so the edges are not so thick. We use all the dough and all the filling. If the filling ends, and the dough remains, then it will be possible to make the ears that kids love so much.

5. Step 4:

   

   Put the dumplings in boiling salted water and boil them until cooked over medium heat. After they pop up, cook them for 2 minutes. We take it out of the pan with a slotted spoon or throw it into a colander.

6. Step 5:

   

   Transfer the dumplings to a deep bowl, add butter, mix everything so that the dumplings do not stick together. Fry the onion in a frying pan (you can add a little chopped garlic for the smell and taste), spread the boiled dumplings and fry them. Serve with sour cream or simply with fried onions.
