Pelmeni

Prepare the Dough In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the water and egg. Mix until a dough forms.

Rest the Dough Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Prepare the Filling In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the ground beef, ground pork, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Cut Out Circles Roll out the dough on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch. Using a round cookie cutter or a glass, cut out circles from the dough.

Fill and Seal the Dumplings Place a small spoonful of the filling in the center of each dough circle. Fold the circle in half and pinch the edges together to seal, forming a dumpling shape.

Cook the Pelmeni Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully drop the pelmeni into the boiling water and cook for about 7-8 minutes, or until they float to the surface.

Prepare the Sauce Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing together sour cream and chopped fresh dill. Serve the cooked pelmeni with the sauce for dipping.
