Delicious dumplings in a microwave oven

Pelmeni in a microwave is a very popular dish among students and bachelors. Indeed, dumplings for the past few years have ceased to be a delicacy. Now it is no longer necessary to mold them with the whole family, devoting more than one hour to this occupation. Pork, beef, chicken and even vegetable dumplings are sold in any store for a very affordable price.

What is the advantage of cooking this dish in a microwave oven? In that you can just set the cooking time and the technique itself will turn off at the right time. At this time you can safely do their own business - for example, you can cut a meaty dish with a delicious vegetable salad.

Dumplings in a microwave can be prepared in two ways.

First, they can be boiled. The matter is simplified if there is a "cooking dumplings" button in the auto-cooking menu. It is enough to lay the required volume and set the recommended power and cooking time.

If there is no such button, you can use the following recipe:

Put the dumplings in a deep glass container or ceramic cup. Pour them with hot water for 2/3 cup, add salt, add a couple of peppercorns, 0.5 bay leaf to taste. Put into the microwave for 10 minutes at maximum power. Do not pour too much water - otherwise it will boil and overflow.

Dumplings with sour cream - dinner for 5 minutes.

It will be required: a glass of boiling water, a tablespoon of sour cream, salt, spices and 200 gr. Dumplings. Dumplings are put in a deep cup. Separately, in a glass of water, sour cream is spread with salt, pour this mixture of dumplings in a bowl, put the plate in a microwave and cook for 10 minutes at high power.

Secondly, dumplings in a microwave can be fried. However, for this, there must necessarily be a "grill" function. Half a pint of dumplings is put in a pot or glassware, salt, poured hot water and put in a microwave for 5 minutes at maximum power. Then they are taken out, the remaining water is poured and laid on a plate in one layer. Sprinkle with grated cheese (just a piece of 100 gr.) And pour with melted butter. You can slightly pepper them or sprinkle with a universal seasoning. Then a plate of pelmeni is put back into the microwave and the function "grill" is turned on for 6-7 minutes. When the cheese melts, and the dumplings in the microwave slightly browned - the dish is ready.

Recently, pelmeni began to be cooked not only in microwave ovens, but also in multivarqua.

Very delicious dumplings are obtained in a multivark with vegetables, and most importantly, that cooking them is easy.

For cooking you need: half a kilo of dumplings, an onion, a pair of carrots, 3-4 pcs. Fresh potatoes, 2-3 tbsp. Spoons of tomato paste and the same amount of sour cream, spices, salt, 2 Bulgarian pepper, vegetable oil.

Potatoes are cleaned and cut into 4-6 pieces, depending on the size, carrots cut in circles, and onions - thick semirings. Prepared vegetables are put on the bottom of the bowl and poured with a mixture of sour cream, tomato paste and vegetable oil. Top layer of dumplings and potatoes. Pour 2 glasses of hot water and put the bowl in the multivark. Prepare dumplings for an hour on the "baking" mode.

The recipe can be slightly modified and cooked dumplings in a multivark with mushrooms.

For preparation it will be required: a large carrot, an onion, a pound of dumplings, 400 grams of fresh mushrooms, a small can of sour cream, salt and pepper. Onions cut into half rings, and carrots are rubbed on a grater, mushrooms cut into large pieces. Before you can lay vegetables in a multivarker, you can fry them a little. Then the vegetables are mixed with frozen pelmeni, seasoned with sour cream, salted and sprinkled with pepper.
