How to cook "Dumplings with a surprise"
Prepare all ingredients.
Peel the potatoes, chop, cover with water and boil until tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dough. Pour water into a deep bowl, add vegetable oil, salt and egg. Whisk everything with a spoon or whisk.
Add flour in portions.
Knead a firm and elastic dough, gather it into a ball, cover with a towel and let sit for 20-30 minutes.
Drain the finished potatoes, add hot milk, salt to taste, a slice of butter and puree.
Cut a piece from the dough, roll a sausage out of it, cut it into pieces and roll each piece in flour on both sides.
Then roll each piece of dough into a circle and place the filling in the center. Now comes the fun part. Put on the filling (hiding a little inside) all sorts of "surprises" for the guests.
Pinch the edges in any convenient way, making sure that the surprise is inside the filling and not detected in advance. Prepare the rest of the dumplings with the usual filling. Ready-made dumplings can be frozen or immediately boiled in boiling salted water.
Pour the dumplings with butter and serve with sour cream, garnished with fresh herbs. Bon appetit and good mood!
Chef's advice:
If you are planning to add thread, buttons, cloves or peppercorns, be sure to warn guests of the possible danger. Inadvertently, a person can swallow or choke, and instead of entertainment, you will make trouble.
