Pelmeni with salmon is a completely normal culinary phenomenon. Even if you have never experienced such a delicacy before. You can also cook them at home. We will be happy to share the recipes for such dumplings with you in this article.

Recipe with salmon

The most ordinary recipe can be transformed if, instead of the usual ones, you cook dumplings with salmon, reviews of which are exceptionally admiring from time to time. To create them you will need:

• wheat flour - 0.5 kg;
• clean drinking water - 0.2 l;
• chicken egg - 1 pc.;
• salmon - 0.5 kg;
• cream (preferably 33%) - 50 ml;
• onion - 1 pc.;
• s alt - 1 tsp;
• other spices to taste.

First you need to prepare the dough. To do this, combine warm water with flour, egg and s alt. Knead with your hands until a homogeneous, elastic mass is obtained, which we send to the refrigerator for at least half an hour.

After this, we completely remove the bones and skin from the salmon fillet, add cream, spices and a little s alt to it, as well aspre-passivated and cooled onions. Seasonings such as oregano or white pepper are great with fish. Take the dough out of the refrigerator and roll out into a thin layer. Approximately one teaspoon of stuffing goes into each dumpling during molding.

You need to cook them for about three minutes after boiling water. The finished dish can be decorated with a small amount of red caviar and dill.

Colored dumplings

Not only the stuffing in dumplings with salmon, the recipes of which we are studying, can be made unusual. The dough itself can also have an unusual appearance. For example, you can cook them green. To do this, you will need the following products:

• several large bunches of parsley;
• flour - 500 g;
• 1 egg;
• s alt - 1 tsp;
• salmon or sturgeon fillet - 450 g;
• 1 onion;
• s alt and spices for dough and minced meat;
• butter - 10g

To create a green dough, you need to chop the parsley in a blender to a puree state, adding a couple of tablespoons of water to it. Mix the resulting mass with flour, egg and s alt, creating a dough. When everything acquires the necessary uniformity, remove the dough in the refrigerator and at this time prepare the minced meat.

Chop the raw fish fillet and mix with spices and s alt. To it add the onion, cut into very small cubes. Pour all this with lemon juice and mix. It will take a few minutes for the minced meat to soak in the aroma of lemon and seasonings. After that, you can start sculpting dumplings with salmon, a recipe with a photo of whichwill become a real decoration of your home cookbook. Boil them for about 5 minutes after boiling, and a small piece of butter will be a great addition to a hot dish of an unusual color.

Variety of toppings

You can make fish dumplings by adding other, more unusual ingredients to them. For example, cream cheese and mushrooms will go well with red fish. For this dish you will need to prepare:

• flour - 0.5 kg;
• cream cheese - 100g;
• salmon - 250 g;
• fresh champignons or oyster mushrooms - 150 g;
• milk - 1 tbsp;
• fresh herbs - 1 bunch;
• onion - 1 piece;
• oil for frying;
• s alt- 1 tsp

The dough must be kneaded from milk, flour and s alt, sending it then to cool. At this time, fry the chopped onion with mushrooms and leave to cool. Cut the peeled salmon into cubes and mix with cream cheese and herbs. Add the cooled mushrooms there, and mix everything well.

Now we make dumplings with salmon ourselves, giving them any shape that seems most appetizing to you. It can be a standard dumpling or crescent-shaped, more like a dumpling. After that, it remains only to boil them, sending them to boiling water for 4-5 minutes and you can serve them to the table, decorating with fresh herbs.

Other cooking methods

Any fish dumplings, the recipes of which you just learned, can be prepared in many ways other than the usualcooking.

For example, if you cook them literally a minute less than the allotted time, and then deep-fry them and fry them until golden, the dumplings will acquire a completely new taste. Such a dish can be an excellent snack for a large company. You can bake our fish delicacy in a pot, adding only sour cream or cream. Don't be afraid to get creative!

And most importantly, these dumplings, like ordinary meat dumplings, tolerate freezing well and can be stored in your refrigerator for months. But after the first defrosting, it is better not to re-cool them. Otherwise, they may lose their unique taste, and more importantly, their beneficial properties.
