The dough is made of flour and water, with eggs sometimes added, and the filling is minced pork, lamb, beef, mutton or other meat, mixed with pepper or other spices and onions, or with fish or mushrooms. They are cooked by boiling them in water or broth, or by frying.<\/p>\n In Russian they are known as \u043f\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0438<\/em> (pel’meni – pl) \/ \u043f\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043c\u0435\u043d\u044c<\/em> (pel’men’ – sg), in Belarusian they are \u043f\u044f\u043b\u044c\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0456<\/em> (pyal’meni), in Ukrainian they are \u043f\u0435\u043b\u044c\u043c\u0435\u043d\u0456<\/em>, (pel’meni), and in Latvian they are pelme\u0146i<\/em>.
