Beef Kreplach

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Add the beef to the skillet and cook, breaking up the meat with a spatula and stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned.

Step 3

Drain excess fat from the skillet.

Step 4

Stir in the paprika, salt, and pepper. Set aside to cool for several minutes.

Step 5

Set a medium saucepan of lightly salted water on the stove to boil.

Step 6

Arrange wonton skins on a work surface.

Step 7

Dollop about 1 heaping teaspoon of filling oneach wonton skin (place it towards one of the corners).

Step 8

Moisten the 2 edges of the wonton skin adjacentto the filling and then fold the wrapper over to form a triangle encasing the filling. Press the sides together to seal them well.

Step 9

Add the kreplach to the water, which should now be at a low boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 to 3 minutes, until the wrapper is tender. Drain.

Step 10

Serve the kreplach on their own or in chicken soup or broth, garnished with chopped fresh dill.
