Pelmeni recipes part 2

Pelmeni in a pot with livers and potatoes

Well, this is a pretty strange dish for me and it kind of tastes strange, too, because we don’t usually have that dish, we just have pelmeni with sour cream or simply with some black pepper and that’s it. However, this one is a pretty wonderful dish, too, especially if you want to amaze your guests.

Ingredients:

• Pelmeni 500 grams
• Chicken livers 250 grams
• Onion, 1 medium
• Tomato sauce/paste 1 tablespoon
• Sour cream 50 grams
• 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
• Beef stock 200 grams
• Potatoes, 3 medium
• Garlic
• Herbs
• Salt to taste
• Black pepper to taste

Preparation process

Well, you should cook pelmeni into a boiling water with salt for about 3 minutes, when it’s in its half-cooked state, I mean, pelmeni shouldn’t be cooked, but it should be undercooked.  You should also add a bay leaf to it in the water.

You should cut the livers into smaller pieces and you should cook them in butter on a frying pan. You should also add some chopped onion and cook them together until they are ready. Then you should pour them some beef stock (which you should have already prepared, but if you don’t have it prepared, I mean, if you don’t have meat to cook so that you can have some beef stock, that’s okay, you can just add some water or have those things dissolved in some water that kind of resembles beef stock, you know, those small packs of different types of things, that make water be like some stock. They cost somewhere about 10 tetris, I guess).

Then, you can mix tomato sauce and sour cream. In a separate bowl, you can get some stock and add 1 tablespoon of flour to it and whisk it and then add it to the sour cream and tomato sauce mixture. Then you should boil that mixture and set it aside when it boils. You can then add some squashed garlic and chopped herbs. Maybe you can have some parsley or celery, I don’t know, you can choose them, or even skip that part. However, herbs give the dish some great taste and you should have some in your dish, if you ask me.

Well, you should then peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes or something like that and put them into pots. You should put pelmeni on them after that and pour the prepared sauce on them. Then you should put the lids on those pots and put them into the oven for 15 minutes. And then the dish is ready and you can serve them to your guests!

Pelmeni in a pot with cheese

After that, you can put those pelmeni into pots and pour the stock or water to them and add sour cream to them and add the cheese and put them into the oven on 180-200 degrees Celsius for about 20-30 minutes and the dish is ready and then you can serve them like that.
