Pelmeni

I use a measuring cup ( 240ml) then i add the egg oil salt and mix then fill the cup to the top with warm water and mix again then add a large bowl . 

Add 3 cups of flour then stir until the dough comes together and knead it for a few minutes until smooth now cover it and rest 30 minutes 

In a bowl mix ground beef and pork ( You can just use ground pork or ground beef if you prefer but i find the meats mixed are more tasty) Finely dice or grate an onion and add it with some salt and pepper then mix all together 

Roll out the dough and use a cookie cutter or glass to cut out circles then place a teaspoon of the filling in the centre and pinch from the middle down each side to seal then fold the sides down to make the traditional shape 

Cook the pelmeni in boiling water until they float around 7 minutes then melt butter and oil in a frying pan and fry until golden . Serve with sour cream more black pepper herbs and scallions
