Step-by-Step Instructions for Dumpling Pelmeni
- Combine 1 cup whole milk, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 large egg, and ½ cup water in a stand mixer. Gradually add 3 cups all-purpose flour until the dough comes together. Knead briefly for about 5 minutes. Cover and let rest for 15-30 minutes.
- Mix together ½ pound ground pork, ½ pound ground chicken, 1 finely chopped medium onion, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Season with salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon vinegar. Stir and let sit for about 10 minutes.
- Roll out the dough to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out circles and place a spoonful of filling in each. Top with another layer of dough and roll the mold to seal edges.
- For hand shaping, roll into thin sheets, cut into squares, place filling in each, fold to create triangles, and pinch edges firmly to seal.
- In a pot of boiling salted water, cook pelmeni in batches for 2-3 minutes until they float. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve.
- Serve the pelmeni warm with melted butter and fresh dill; offer sour cream or vinegar on the side.
