Dumplings with cabbage steamed
Description
I remember these delicious dumplings from my childhood, since my grandmother's village was located near the Ukrainian border, and this dish was one of our staples, with only the fillings varying. We tried them all: potatoes, mushrooms, cottage cheese, and various berry fillings, but this simple recipe for steamed cabbage dumplings remained our favorite. Of course, there were no steamers back then, so we used a regular colander and a pot. Grandmother always said that dumplings should only be cooked by steaming. That's how I still prepare them today, though with modern appliances everything has become much easier and faster, and now I'll tell you how.

Step 1
First of all, we chop the cabbage, finely slice the onion, and grate the carrot. Put the vegetables in a frying pan to simmer until fully cooked, then season the ready filling with salt and pepper. While the vegetables are simmering, we'll prepare the dough. Sift the flour and mix it with salt and baking soda, then pour in the buttermilk.

From these ingredients, knead a thick and elastic dough, adding a little more flour if necessary. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for one hour.

After the time has elapsed, we take out the dough, sprinkle the table with flour, and roll out the dough into a thin layer.

Step 4
Using a glass, cut out circles from the dough and place a small amount of filling in the center of each circle, then tightly seal the edges of the dough.

Step 5
I cooked the dumplings in a multicooker, but you can use a steamer as well. Pour a little water into the pot, place the steaming basket, and arrange the dumplings in it. Close the multicooker lid, select the "Steam" setting, and set the time for 15 minutes.

While the dumplings are cooking, you can fry some onion in a pan and serve the dish with it. Enjoy your meal, everyone!
