Step 1
1. How to make manty with cabbage? First, you need to prepare the dough. To do this, crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt, vegetable oil, and cold water. Mix thoroughly. Gradually add flour, kneading to form a firm and dense dough. Once ready, knead the dough well with your hands until it becomes more elastic. Then let the dough rest for some time.

2. Meanwhile, prepare the filling. Wash the meat (in this version, lamb) and dry it. Then cut it into small pieces with a sharp knife. Do not mince the meat in a meat grinder, as this will completely change the dish's flavor.
