Step cooking
- Finely chop one onion peeled onion into cubes.
- We need about 800 mushrooms. For this recipe, any mushrooms, both forest and artificially grown (oyster mushrooms, mushrooms), both fresh and frozen, are suitable. Fresh mushrooms must be sorted out, cleaned of soil residues, washed. Frozen - pre-thaw at low temperature, drain, rinse. For these operations we need a colander. Forest mushrooms must be boiled beforehand. Each type has its own nuances of cooking, do not forget to take this into account.
- Grind the mushrooms. You can do this manually, but it's easier to use a blender. You do not have to be very zealous and mashed mushrooms, just chop them into small pieces. We heat the pan on the stove, pour vegetable oil, a few tablespoons into it, let it heat and send the onion into the pan. We pass it for a couple of minutes.
- When the onion becomes transparent, pour the mushrooms into the pan, salt and pepper to taste, mix. Add a small piece of butter - 30-40 grams. With butter, the mushrooms are tender.
- Fry over high heat for five minutes, stirring occasionally so that they do not burn. If the mushrooms start the juice, then it is necessary to allow it to evaporate and only then remove from the heat. But so that this does not happen, try to put them in very hot oil. We take 500 g of dumplings dough (you can buy it in a store or knead yourself), divide it into three parts, two of them are put in the refrigerator so that the dough is not heated, and with the third we start working.
- Lightly sprinkle the table with flour, put a piece of dough on it and roll it out with a rolling pin into a round thin layer.
- In a round form we squeeze out blanks for dumplings from it. If you didn’t have a special shape on hand, it’s quite possible to get along with an ordinary glass or cup. The remainder of the dough is collected in a lump, and when there are a lot of them (we have two more pieces of dough in the refrigerator in stock, and they also need to be rolled and cut out), blind them into one lump and re-roll them. A little trick: if you cook dumplings alone, then, so that the round dough dough pieces are not weathered, while you are making dumplings, take a regular bag and put the circles in it, and then take them out as you spend.
- We begin to sculpt dumplings. We prepare a tray on which we will fold them, sprinkle it with flour. We take a circle of dough, put on it in the center a teaspoon of the filling, tamp it well and slide it from the edges so that when modeling it does not fall between the fastened halves of the dough. Fold the edges of the dough and carefully combine them. We do this very carefully so that dumplings do not open during cooking.
- We put ready dumplings on a tray sprinkled with flour.
- We put on a fire a three-liter pot of water (2 l), bring to a boil, salt water (about half a tablespoon of salt), put 2-3 bay leaves. We spread the dumplings in boiling water in small batches, immediately stir so that they do not stick to the bottom. We wait for boiling (dumplings will emerge at the same time), reduce the heat and cook for 2-3 minutes. We take out a slotted spoon in a spacious dish. Add fire under the pan so that the water boils again for the next batch. Meanwhile, grease the prepared dumplings with a small piece of butter so that they do not stick together. Repeat the steps until we cook the right amount of dumplings.
Did you know? If you still have uncooked dumplings, you can put them in the freezer for storage. Sprinkle the prepared dish with chopped herbs, season with sour cream and serve.
