Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Prepare the dough for the dumplings. Sift 3 cups of flour (250 ml each) into a bowl. Add half a teaspoon of salt and mix. Beat one egg with a fork, add it to the flour, and mix.

Step 2

Pour 200 ml of boiling water into the flour, add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and knead the dough. Grease your hands with vegetable oil (1 tablespoon), and shape the dough into a ball.

Step 3

Place the dough in a bag for 30–40 minutes. During this time, it will become elastic.

Step 4

While the dough is resting, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Finely chop the cabbage. Peel and finely chop the onion.

Step 5

Heat 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet, add the onion, and sauté for 3–4 minutes.

Step 6

Add the cabbage, mix, season with salt and pepper, and sauté the cabbage for about 7–8 minutes.

Step 7

Add the chopped dill and mix.

Step 8

Beat three eggs in a bowl with a fork. Pour the eggs into the cabbage mixture and quickly stir to cook the eggs. Transfer the filling to a flat dish to cool faster.

Step 9

Dust the table with flour, take the dough out of the bag, knead it, and roll it into a log, dividing it into four parts. Set aside three parts, covering them with a towel to prevent drying out.

Step 10

Roll out the remaining part into a sausage shape, cut it into pieces, and roll out into circles.

Step 11

Place 1 teaspoon heaping of filling in the center of each circle, fold the edges together, seal, and create a decorative edge by twisting.

Step 12

Boil the dumplings by dropping them one by one into boiling salted water, to which you have added 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and 2 bay leaves. Gently stir with the back of a spoon to avoid damage. When the dumplings float, boil them for another 3–4 minutes and remove with a slotted spoon.

Step 13

Add a small piece of butter to the dish with the cooked dumplings, gently shake to prevent sticking. Serve hot with sour cream.
