This picture was taken at a branch activity in Kurgan, Russia on April 10, 2010. We had a small activity where we hand made пельмени. We first got тесто (dough) and rolled it flat. Then added some flour to make it not so sticky. Then we cut the тесто into circles. Then we put a little ball of фарш (ground meat) on the circle and enclosed the the фарш in the тесто. Then, because it was April and it was still cold outside, we put the finished ones outside to chill. Once they had chilled somewhat we then dumped them in a pot of boiling water, similar to how you would eat spaghetti. Let them boil until they rise to the top and then they are finished. Get the пельмени out of the water and onto your plate. Add some кетчуп (ketchup), which is what I am doing in the picture, and enjoy!
