  • Sift flour, add eggs and some salt. Pour water into a bowl with ingredients and knead a cool dough. It should turn out soft and gentle. Wrap the finished dough in a film and leave for about half an hour.
  • Cooking the filling. Crush potatoes boiled in salted water with a special crush, add salt, pepper, half the onion, fried in oil.
  • We return to the test. Culinary experts thinly roll out the dough, and after a glass cut circles. I do not use this technology. I take the dough, roll it into a sausage and cut into slices, about a half centimeter thick.
  • Roll each piece of dough in flour and roll into a circle, put a little filling in the middle. Make sure that the amount of filling does not interfere with the easy connection of the edges of the dumpling.
  • Sculpt dumplings carefully and decisively. If the edges do not stick together, moisten them with water. Blinded dumplings should be placed on a surface sprinkled with flour.
  • Put a shallow pan on the stove, pour water and bring to a boil. When the water boils, add a little salt and toss the dumplings.
  • Cook for no more than three minutes. The filling is already ready, but there is plenty of dough for this time. Catch the ready-made dumplings with a slotted spoon, put in a bowl, add the remaining fried onions and can be served.
