Instructions

1. Begin by preparing the Pelmeni dough by combining flour, salt, egg, and cold water in a bowl. Knead until smooth and set aside to rest. Prepare the Beef Stroganoff by sautéing sliced beef sirloin with onions, garlic, and mushrooms in butter, then add sour cream and seasonings. Cook until heated through. For Vodka Sauce, gently simmer heavy cream, vodka, and Parmesan cheese, seasoning to taste. Keep warm. Roll out the rested Pelmeni dough and cut into small circles. Place a spoonful of Beef Stroganoff mixture in the center of each circle and fold over to form a dumpling. Seal edges well. Boil the dumplings in salted water until they float, then drain. Serve the Beef Stroganoff over cooked Pelmeni and drizzle with Vodka Sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Chef’s Insight

Use a cast iron skillet to cook the Beef Stroganoff for added depth of flavor.
