11. Put the “rested” dough on a work surface dusty with flour. For the convenience of work, the dough can be divided into several parts. Roll out the dough into a thin layer approximately 2 mm thick. Using a glass, cut out circles with a diameter of 6-7 cm from the dough. Put about 1 teaspoon of potato filling for each circle of dough. We connect the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch, forming dumplings. From this number of products, I got 30 large dumplings.
