Khinkali recipe
Delicious dumplings filled with juicy meat and spices.
Ingredients
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 200 ml water
- 400 g ground beef
- 1 unit onion
- 2 unit garlic
- 1 tbsp coriander
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp parsley
How to make Khinkali
- In a bowl, mix 500 g of all-purpose flour with 200 ml of water to form a smooth dough, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it feels elastic and smooth; cover it with a towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Finely chop 1 onion and 2 cloves of garlic; then mix them with 500 g of ground beef, 1 teaspoon of coriander, salt, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of chopped parsley.
- Roll out the rested dough on a floured surface and cut it into 10-12 circles each about 10 cm in diameter using a cutter or glass.
- Spoon the meat mixture into the center of each dough circle, ensuring it's not overfilled to avoid tearing the dough.
- Pinch the edges of each circle together to seal, forming a pleated pouch shape, ensuring there are no openings.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat; gently drop the dumplings in the boiling water.
- Boil the khinkali for 10-15 minutes or until they float and are cooked through, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
