Step-by-step recipe with photos

Recently, during an online conversation in my live journal, I learned a very interesting recipe - Amur-style dumplings or Amur dumplings, Amur. I was highly advised to cook them, I was very impressed, although I was surprised by the composition of the dish...

The dumplings are baked in a rich liver gravy! My husband (very conservative when it comes to cooking) really liked the Amur dumplings and he, so to speak, added them to our menu permanently. It’s just a pity that none of the three children eat liver...))

The liver can be different, chicken is closer to my taste and ease of preparation, but if you like beef or pork, then take them. In some sources, dumplings are pre-boiled before placing them in pots, in others they write that dumplings are added raw. I prefer the option in which the dumplings are sent to the pots raw, because I often bake dumplings with all sorts of fillings and sauces.

Undoubtedly, the most delicious dumplings are homemade ones, prepared with your own hands, but among the store-bought ones there are also quite decent quality and taste.

To prepare Amur-style dumplings in pots, prepare the ingredients according to the list.

Chop onions and carrots, for example, into strips and fry in vegetable oil. Lightly salt.

Add the liver pieces and simmer all together for about five minutes while stirring.

Then add ketchup or tomato sauce and sour cream and stir.

Pour in hot water or broth and simmer until the liver is ready. Add salt to taste.

Pour the liver gravy into the bottom of the pots.

Next, add ten dumplings to each pot.

Add liver gravy on top again. Cover the pots with lids or dough. Bake in the oven or microwave until done.

Approximate cooking times for different options:

• in the microwave - with raw dumplings for about ten minutes, with boiled dumplings - 3-4 minutes at MAX
• in the oven - with raw - about 30 minutes, with boiled - 15 minutes at 200 degrees.

Amur dumplings in pots are ready.

No additional sauces are required for them, but they can be accompanied by salads of fresh vegetables.

Bon appetit!

Useful tips

Cupid dumplings cooked in pots can taste better, and some of the steps can be simplified if you follow a few simple tips.

It is also important to be able to choose the right key ingredients:

• Beef liver is replaced with chicken liver, so the taste of the dish does not change much. It is not recommended to use pork liver due to the bitter taste.

• It is recommended to add champignons or oyster mushrooms to the recipe, since these mushrooms do not require preliminary preparation. They are washed, cut and placed in molds.
• Before the baking process in the oven, dumplings are not always boiled; they can also be fried in a frying pan in vegetable oil. The dish will finally reach readiness during the stewing process.
• In addition to mushrooms, meat ingredients (chicken fillet, ham, smoked meats, etc.) are placed in the pots. With this set of components, all layers alternate with a layer of dumplings.
• Ceramic lids are sometimes replaced with dough cakes. To do this, use yeast dough, cover the pots with it and leave for a few minutes for the dough to rise. After this, the forms are sent to the oven.
• In addition to carrots and onions, other ingredients are added to the ingredients for stewing dumplings - tomatoes, peppers, broccoli, greens, beans, etc.
• Dumplings are placed in pots not boiled until cooked, fried or frozen. If the dumplings are pre-processed, they will not stick together in the oven. If you use frozen dumplings, let them thaw a little and then place them in the mold.
• The braising process in the oven requires liquid. To do this, use broth from dumplings or any other. Milk, cream, sour cream or other types of sauces are also added.
• It is recommended to remove dumplings from the oven 5 minutes beforehand. until ready. As the cookware heats up, they will continue to cook until done, but will not lose their shape.

• Use ceramic or glass pots carefully. This form does not tolerate sudden changes in temperature, so the dishes are placed in a cold oven and gradually heated. Within 30 min. the oven should reach 190°, then add degrees to the desired level.
• Cover the pots of Amur dumplings with a lid before putting them in the oven, but periodically check the liquid level. Otherwise, the sauce may splash out or boil away ahead of time. Add more sauce if necessary.

Step-by-step cooking recipe

Prepare the sauce:

Grate the carrots on a coarse grater, cut the onion into thin quarter rings, sauté with a small amount of oil.

Add tomato sauce, sauté for another 10 minutes over low heat. Add flour, calcined in a frying pan without oil until beige. Also add sour cream or cream (I used 45% fat, but this is optional), ready-made broth. If necessary, pepper and salt. Heat a little more and the sauce is ready.

According to the recipe, boil the dumplings in salted water until half cooked (2 minutes after boiling, or in the microwave with the addition of a small amount of water). I had small dumplings and decided not to boil them at all.

Cut the liver (can be chicken, beef, pork - the last two are better pre-soaked in milk), fry in a frying pan with vegetable oil (add a little salt at the end).

Place in portioned pots: dumplings, liver, add bay leaves, pour sauce over them. Cover with a lid or, if desired, with a flatbread made from unleavened or yeast dough.

Place in a cold oven, set to 200 C and simmer for 30 minutes.
