Russian dumplings wrapped in unleavened dough. This is my mother-in-law's recipe so I can cook for my Russian husband. Serve with broth and butter or sour cream!

Time 1h10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound ground chicken
½ onion, minced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
1 cup whole wheat flour, divided
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 bay leaf

Steps:

  • Mix ground chicken, onion, salt, and pepper together in a bowl.
  • Sift all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup whole wheat flour together in a bowl. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Whisk milk and egg together in a small bowl. Pour over flour mixture; mix until dough comes together.
  • Turn dough out on a lightly floured work surface. Knead, adding the remaining 1/2 cup whole wheat flour, until dough is elastic. Divide dough into 4 pieces.
  • Roll out 1 piece dough to 1/16-inch thickness. Cut into circles with a 2-inch cookie cutter or water glass. Place 1 teaspoon chicken mixture in the center. Brush edges with water. Fold over into a half-moon shape and seal edges. Repeat with remaining dough and chicken mixture.
  • Fill a large pot with water; add remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and bay leaf. Bring to a boil. Cook pelmeni in batches until they float to the top, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a platter using a slotted spoon.

These pelmeni were a bit bland. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

I had a hard time getting the dough to the right consistency. It was either too sticky or too dry.

The pelmeni were a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise they were very good.
