To make Classic Georgian Beef Khinkali, you will need the following ingredients:
- 500g minced beef
- 2 onions, finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup warm water
- Salt for boiling
To start, mix the minced beef, onions, garlic, salt, black pepper, cumin, coriander, paprika, and red pepper flakes in a bowl. Set aside.
Next, make the dough by mixing the flour and warm water in a separate bowl. Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
After the dough has rested, roll it out into a thin sheet and cut it into circles using a cookie cutter or a glass. Place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center of each circle and fold the dough over the filling, pinching the edges together to seal.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and carefully drop the khinkali into the water. Boil for 10-12 minutes or until the dough is cooked through.
Serve the Classic Georgian Beef Khinkali hot with a side of sour cream or tomato sauce.
