Galushki Food

GALUSHKI

Steps:

• 1. Add the water in the flour; stir well.
• 2. Add the nearly melted dairy butter in flour with water. Stir till it is homogeneous.
• 3. Knead the dough. Don't press too much on the dough because it might be too stiff. It should be soft and airy. Cover the dough with napkin and let it rest for 15-20 mins.
• 4. Roll the dough out; it should be 0.5-1 cm thick. Cut it into pieces of any form (usually squares).
• 5. Put the piece into salted boiling water and cook for 10 mins over a low heat. Pull out the galushki that are at the top. Place them in the colander or sieve to remove the water excess.
• 6. Heat the oil in the frying pan. Put the galushki there and fry them a little. Serve the galushki hot seasoned with sour cream.

HALUSHKI

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Turn the dough out unto a floured surface. Roll the dough out to about 14-inch rectangle and 1/4-inch thick. Cut the dough into 1-inch squares. Add the dough to the boiling water and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, or until the dough floats for 1 minute in the water and is fully cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large saute pan. Add the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Saute until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, toss the dumplings with the onions and cheese. Toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon into a serving bowl and garnish with parsley. Serve warm.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the water, oil and egg. Mix well. Add the salt and 3 cups of the flour. Mix until the dough comes together and form a smooth ball. **If the dough is too sticky-add a little more flour, about 1/4 cup at a time. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rest for 30 minutes.

GALUSKIES

Steps:

• Place cabbages in a large stockpot filled halfway with water; add vinegar. Cover and steam over low heat until leaves are tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove cabbages, reserving vinegar cooking water. Rinse with cold water to chill the cabbage, then separate the leaves.
• Meanwhile, bring 3 cups water and rice to a boil in a saucepan over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork; set aside to cool.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Brown the ground beef and sausage with the onion, salt, garlic salt, and pepper, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Cover the bottom of a large roasting pan with a single layer of cabbage leaves.
• Prepare the filling by stirring together the rice, cooked meat, and sauerkraut until well blended. Place 1/3 cup of filling into each leaf and roll into a cylinder, tucking in the ends as you roll it up. Place the rolls into the roasting pan. Pour in enough of the cooking liquid from the cabbage to come halfway up the sides of the rolls. Cover pan with a tight fitting lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake in preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours. Serve warm or at room temperature.
