Dough rolls with minced meat, or 'lazy dumplings', are a simple yet incredibly tasty version of a traditional dish. Their origin is linked to the desire to speed up the preparation of classic dumplings while preserving the rich meat flavor and tender dough. The taste of this dish harmoniously combines the softness of the dough, the juiciness of the meat filling, and the aroma of spices. The uniqueness of preparation is that rolls can be cooked in various ways: boiled, baked, or stewed. One of the best options is slow stewing in a sour cream sauce with the addition of khmeli-suneli, garlic, and carrots, making the dish especially fragrant and rich.

The recipe is taken from the book "The North Warms" by Rashid Rakhmanov, published by "Eksmo". "Probably, this salad combines all the ways in which the Uralians of that region prepared food for the long winters. This includes salting elk meat (corned beef), pickling cabbage, marinating mushrooms, and soaking berries (for example, lingonberries). You will find several recipes in this book in the relevant sections. I will dwell separately on corned elk meat. Like many northern dishes, corned beef appeared due to the need to store food for the long winters. This is how elk and deer meat was preserved: it was rubbed with salt and placed in a kind of refrigerator - in a hole in the frozen the ground, lined with stones, and then covered with earth. This method was common among many peoples of the North (Yakuts, Evens, Evenks, Nganasans). For me, this salad embodies the history and cultural traditions of the peoples of the Northern Urals. We use wet salting because it has some advantages over dry salting. With wet salting, salt penetrates the meat faster and is distributed evenly, the product turns out tender and moderately salty (unlike dry salting, where the meat is greatly dehydrated, becoming dry and tough ) . In addition, it is easier to saturate the salt solution with spices

Choucroute can be called the older brother of our solyanka. It is believed that the first recipe for stewed cabbage with smoked meats appeared in Alsace many centuries ago. However, there are differences in the two related dishes: if solyanka is prepared from both fresh and sauerkraut, then in Alsace it is fermented without fail and only then subjected to heat treatment. Also, if in the Russian version cabbage is rarely diluted with other vegetables, then potatoes are very often added to choucroute, and different types of meat are also used in recipes, and in some regions, fish.
