Pelmeni are adorable little dumplings from Russia. What goes into them depends on where you have them. Each home has a different recipe. Rather you make them by hand or use a tool like a dumpling maker or a Pelmenitsa is up to the individual.
Like their Polish cousin the Pierogi, Pelmeni can be frozen. Which makes them even more appealing. You can take a day and hunker down in your kitchen to make these lovely little dumplings.
What to put in them depends on you… Lamb is a popular choice among Siberians. Of course, I am sure Russians have had times when any kind of meat was welcomed. There’s a vareity of sauces to serve over these dumplings. Veggies could be seved on the side.
