Ingredients

Method

  1. In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add egg and water. Knead until smooth, then let rest 30 minutes.
  2. Divide dough into small portions and roll out into thin circles. Place a spoonful of cherry filling in the center.
  3. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape, pressing edges to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
  4. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook dumplings in batches for 3-4 minutes until they float. Drain.
  5. In a pan, melt butter and stir in sour cream. Serve warm dumplings with a dollop of sour cream on top.
