Handmade dumplings
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Dumplings are a very delicious meal! Some prefer to buy store-bought semi-finished products, while others like to make them from scratch. I suggest making hand-made dumplings. Quick dumpling folding is, of course, a matter of a little practice, but all the effort fades into the background when you want to treat your family to a tasty homemade dish. #betterathome The finished dish can now be served.

Now take the dough and cut off a piece. Cover the rest again to prevent it from drying out and set it aside to wait its turn. Roll the piece of dough into a rope and roll it out to a thickness of about 2 cm. The thinner the rope, the thinner the dumplings will be. Cut it into equal-sized pieces.
