Chuchura (Soup dumpling)

Chuchura are dumplings boiled in water forming a kind of meat parcel soup which is very delicious. Preparation takes a long time to wrap and cook each item.  Chuchura is made from minced lamb stirred with onion and black pepper. We cook it for special and VIP guests.
Ingredients:
  Flour, water, meat (usually mutton), onion, salt, black pepper
Preparation:
  1.    Cook soup with mutton ribs for a long time to ensure its taste.
  2.    Make dough, pull thin and cut into squares
  3.    Chop the meat into very small pieces (as minced).
  4.    Then chop an onion and mix with the meat, pepper and salt to form a kind of stuffing.  
  5.    Wrap the stuffing into the square dough pieces so each looks like a kind of cowboy hat, sealing the dough together using ones thumbnails.
  6.    Place the wrapped dumpling into the boiled water with the ribs and boil for around twenty minutes – taste one to know if it is well done before you turn off the boil.
  7.    After boiling, add some coriander and enjoy.
  Not only is chuchura delicious, one should never miss a chance to try this most famous of Xinjiang dishes. Each dish is usually served with caraway and white or black pepper on top.
