Meat Kreplach | My Jewish Learning

Step 1

To Make Filling Saute the onion with the ground meat. Remove excess fat.

Step 2

Combine with the egg and salt and pepper to taste.

Step 3

To Make Dough Beat the eggs slightly. Add salt, water, and enough flour to make a medium-soft dough. Knead well by hand or in the food processor. Divide the dough into 2 balls. Cover with a moist towel.

Step 4

Working quickly, roll out 1 ball of dough very thin with a rolling pin and cut into 6 strips, each 1-1/2 inches wide. Then cut into pieces 1-1/2 inches square.

Step 5

Place 1/2 teaspoon meat mixture on each square. Fold into a triangle and press edges together firmly, using flour to bind. Leave as is, or press together two of the ends. Repeat with the second ball of dough.

Step 6

Drop into boiling water and cook, uncovered, 15 minutes.
