Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 3 cups

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Sift the flour, mound it up, make a well in the center, and pour in salted water and eggs. Knead the dough and let it rest for 20–30 minutes covered with a towel to prevent drying out.

Step 2

Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Pass the lamb, pork, and bone marrow through a meat grinder. Season the filling with salt and pepper, and mix thoroughly.

Step 3

Roll the prepared dough into a log and cut it into pieces, then roll each piece into small thin circles - the bases for the dumplings. Place 5–10 grams of filling on each, shape the dumplings, and drop them into boiling water.

Step 4

Add salt and pepper, bay leaves, and cook the dumplings until done, until they float to the surface. Serve the Gerasimov-Style homemade dumplings with butter, sour cream, or vinegar on the side, as desired.
