Meanwhile, prepare the dumpling filling. Finely chop half an onion and add it to the minced meat. I used ready-made minced meat, so I chopped the onion separately, but if you make your minced meat using a meat grinder, pass the onion through the grinder as well. Also add salt, spices to the minced meat, and finely chopped herbs if desired.
