Ingredients

Directions

  1. DOUGH: Combine flour & salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a deep well in the center. Drop in the Large eggs & water. With your hands mix the flour into the liquid till thoroughly mixed. Dough should be able to be gathered into a compact ball. Transfer dough-ball to a lightly floured surface & pressed flat. Knead the dough by folding from end-to-end then flattening it with the heel of your hand. Be sure to sprinkle the dough with extra flour as needed. Knead for approx. 15 min or possibly till dough becomes smooth and very elastic in texture. Shape into a ball, wrap loosely in either waxed paper or possibly place in a bowl covered with a towel. Alow to stand at room temperature for a minimum of 1 hour but no more than 4 hrs. FILLING: Heat the butter in a large skillet then add in 1 Tablespoons of the peanut oil and mix well over High heat. Add in the grnd lamb & the garlic. Brown well being sure to break up any clumps of meat which may form. Transfer lamb to a mixing bowl. Add in the parsley, cilantro, salt, & rice. Mix very thoroughly and allow to cold to room temperature. DUMPLINGS: Roll dough on a floured surface till forms a sheet approx. 1/8" thick. Lift the dough at this point, on the backs of your hands and stretch it till is paper- thin. Using either a glass or possibly a cookie cutter, cut the dough into 3" circles. This will result in 72 - 76 circles. In the center of each circle, place 1 tsp. of the lamb filling. Fold the circles in half enclosing the filling. Take a fork and press the edges of each dumpling to seal them. Lightly beat the egg. Brush the edges of the seal dumpling with beatten egg. Heat the peanut oil in deep-fat fryer till it is 375 degrees F. Deep fry the dumplings for 2 - 3 min each or possibly till they are proportionately browned. Drain well. Serve over rice or possibly with soup.*NOTE*
  2. These may be made up & frzn. they keep well ij the freezer a month or possibly better. You may also steam these tasty little dumplings and serve them with rice this way as well. I have tried them with beef filling, chicken filling, and was told by soem Kazakh friends which they may also be made with shrimp.
