Pelmeni
Like borscht, blini or pirozhki, pelmeni is a classic Slavic dish. They are usually prepared from beef, pork, lamb or any other kind of meat and even sometimes fish or mushrooms. Usually the family gathers at one large table and makes them together by hand. Some eaten then but they can be frozen for storage and cooked later on when there isn’t time to prepare a large meal, just remove from the freezer and put them in salted boiling water for about 8- 10 minutes.
I remember doing these by hand with my mom and grandma as a child but a pelmeni mold will make your life a little easier. I brought my mold from Ukraine, but you can find the pelmeni maker on Amazon, just don’t buy the plastic one.
