The dough comes together in minutes, and the meat filling is the best you’ll ever taste with the addition of a secret ingredient. This recipe is comfort food at its finest! You better believe these can be made in advance and frozen!

Ingredients

Dough (Prepare 4 batches of the below recipe)

Filling

  • 1 large onion, chopped

  • 1 pound chuck steak or goulash meat

  • salt, to taste

  • Pereg Pepper, to taste

Directions

Prepare the Dough

1.

Combine all ingredients in a food processor until a ball forms. Remove and knead.

2.

For this amount of meat, you will need to prepare four batches of krepel dough.

Prepare the Meat Filling

1.

Chop and fry onions for five minutes. Add meat, salt, pepper, bay leaves, and cook for one hour with lid on. When meat is cooked, add flour to thicken.

2.

Let it cool a little, but still warm. Then remove the meat, mince or process it, and return it to the sauce with the liver.

Assembly

1.

Roll out dough as thin as you can or use a pasta machine.

2.

Cut out four-inch circles. Place a teaspoon of meat mixture in center of the dough, then close it up. The kreplach can be frozen at this point.

3.

When ready, boil the kreplach in soup or water until they float to the top.

4.

Drain with a slotted spoon.

Can the dough recipe be halved? Would I also halve or quarter the meat recipe?

It says in step #2 of the dough recipe “ For this amount of meat, you will need to prepare four batches of krepel dough.”, meaning you only need one batch of the meat filling.
