Cooking Time: 15 minutesPreperation Time: 30 minutes

Preparing the Dough

Combine flour and, if you prefer, eggs in a mixing bowl. Gradually add water while mixing to form a smooth, pliable dough. Knead until the dough is elastic.

Making the Filling

Choose your filling - minced meat, vegetables, or cheese. For a meat filling, cook the meat until it's no longer pink, seasoning with spices as desired. For a vegetable filling, sauté your chosen vegetables until tender.

Forming the Dumplings

Roll out the dough into a thin sheet and cut out circles. Place a small amount of filling in the center of each circle, then fold the dough over to create a semi-circular shape. Press the edges to seal.

Cooking the Dumplings

Boil or steam the dumplings until they are cooked through. This usually takes about 5-10 minutes for boiling or 10-15 minutes for steaming. Optionally, toss them lightly in oil or a sauce for extra flavor.

Serving

Serve the dumplings hot, garnished with chopped herbs such as dill or parsley. A light sauce or gravy can add a fine touch, though keep it minimal to let the dumplings shine.

⭐️ Nutrition facts:

Each dumpling is a balanced mix of protein, carbohydrates, and, depending on the filling, can have a higher fiber content if vegetable-filled, or more protein if meat-filled. The optional sauce can add a moderate amount of fat, but overall, dumplings can be a nutritious component of a meal.
