Pierogi with pork and chicken
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Dumplings are a simple dish. The key is to knead the right dough—neither too tough nor too soft. Tender, soft dough cannot be rolled out very thinly, but that's exactly what we need. A classic filling consists of pork and beef, but believe me, dumplings with chicken and pork are just as delicious. The specified amount of ingredients yields 70 medium-sized dumplings. Serve hot.

Step 10
You can freeze the dumplings or cook them right away. To do so, pour water into a pot, add salt, bring to a boil, and drop the dumplings in. Stir gently to prevent them from sticking to the bottom. Once the dumplings float to the surface, continue cooking for another 7-8 minutes, then remove them from the pot.
