Dumplings with sauerkraut

If you have too much sauerkraut stored for the winter, there is a way to quickly use up these supplies by making vareniki with sauerkraut. This step-by-step recipe is suitable for those who like a richer taste. If desired, you can add almost any ingredients to the filling: meat, fresh cabbage, herbs and onions.
How to cook Dumplings with sauerkraut
Step 1

Prepare the dough. In a bowl, thoroughly mix water, egg and salt until smooth, beating them with a fork for about 4-5 minutes. Start adding flour, stirring the dough with each new portion: first with a spoon, and when it begins to thicken - with your hand. The dough must be thoroughly kneaded, grabbing from the edges to the center. After that, cover it with a towel and put it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. During this time, it will become elastic and pliable.
Step 2

While the dough is in the refrigerator, prepare the filling. Finely chop the onion. Fry over medium heat until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the sauerkraut, stir, cover and simmer for 20-30 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool.
Step 3

While the filling is cooling, prepare the frying for the finished dumplings. Finely chop the onion and fry it over medium heat for about 5 minutes until golden brown. Remove from heat.
Step 4

Start making the dumplings. Sprinkle a little flour on the table, take the dough out of the fridge, roll it out with a rolling pin into a layer about 1 mm thick. Take a glass or cup and cut small circles. Roll the rest of the dough into a "sausage", cut into small pieces and roll the circles by hand.
Step 5

Place the filling in the center of each circle and pinch the edges. The seam should be tight enough to prevent it from falling apart.
Step 6

Boil the dumplings. Throw them into the water and stir with a slotted spoon so that they don’t stick to the bottom. After about 2 minutes, as soon as the dumplings float to the surface, take them out and serve.
Step 7

Serve the finished dish, pouring the fried mixture on top. You can also sprinkle the dumplings with chopped green onions and add a couple of pieces of lard.
