Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 200 g Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1 Egg
  • 100 ml Water
  • 250 gram ground Pork
  • 250 gram ground Beef
  • 1/2 chopped Onion
  • 3 cloves chopped Garlic
  • 2 tbsp Dill
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Method

  • Step 1

    With flour, salt, egg and water knead a pasta dough, but be careful with the water, only add as much to make the dough soft. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

  • Step 2

    Knead all the meats and rest of the ingredients well together.

  • Step 3

    After the rest form the dough into a long approx. 2-3 cm thick roll and cut 1 cm wide slices.

  • Step 4

    Roll each slice out to a palm size disk. Put this disk onto your palm and fill it with a big chunk of the filling.

  • Step 5

    Fold together and pinch the sides well together. Now hold the tips of this half-moon and pull them together, pinch them well so they stick together.

  • Step 6

    Bring a big pot of salted water to a boil and drop the Pelmeni in. As soon as the start floating you let them simmer for 10 minutes.

  • Step 7

    Traditionally they are served with sour cream but I served them with the Mushroom and Eggplant Caviar
