Sometimes you want to pamper your family with dumplings. But the preparation of this dish takes a lot of time and effort.
Lazy dumplings are a great way to simplify the process of cooking your favorite dish.
Lazy dumplings - the basic principles of cooking
Dough and stuffing do the same as on ordinary dumplings. The dough is rolled into a large layer, spread on it with a thin layer of minced meat and rolled up. Then cut it into pieces so as to make small "kegs".
Spread them cut down into a wide frying pan or stewpan in one row. Pour chicken broth or water, and boil over low heat for about forty minutes.
For those who do not want to mess with dough, lazy dumplings can be made from thin pita.
Lazy dumplings are boiled, stewed with vegetables, baked in the oven or fried.
Serve dumplings with sour cream, mayonnaise or ketchup.
