This one is stuffed with meat, potatoes, and fried onions. Horseradish sour cream sauce with dill and lemon juice on the side. An excellent additions here are more fried onions and dill thrown under the steamer lid for the last minute or two — to wake up the scent.
The traditional stuffing is usually pumpkin. But it can be anything — possibilities are endless. At the time, all I could think of was meat and potatoes.
The reminder of this meat-wrapped-in-dough variation came from Silk Roads book. I so love food from that part of the world!
With the book came the memories of our summer times in Kazakhstan, a little piece of heaven called Borovoye — now Burabay — in the midst of endless steppe. Hills, pines, lakes, and quiet. Look it up…
