Vegetable oil is a product that will make the workpiece elastic.

When the dough forms a ball, knead it with your hands and leave it for half an hour, wrapped in a towel or bag.

Now you can move on to making the dumplings themselves. It is better to sprinkle the table with flour, but only lightly. If there is too much powder, the dough will be dry and will tear.

Earlier we talked about super-juicy cutlets that can be prepared in half an hour and without a meat grinder.
