Blubers from beet leaf in sour cream

Before you wrap the pigeons, the leaves must be prepared. Wash them well and put them on a paper towel so that they give off moisture. No need to scald, they are tender and will tear after that. Now the stuffing.
In fact, the blueberries are stuffed with mamalyga, which is tucked with squarks and an egg. If desired, you can add different greens, but this can affect the final taste. Let’s start with quarks, which need to be fried from the peritoneum along with onions. Salt tastes good.
Wash the corn cereals, then pour into boiling water, mix and water drain. Again pour fresh boiling water just above the cereal level and boil until the porridge swells. There's no need to stir the porridge. When the cereal is cooked, put it in a separate container and mix it with sliced eggs and squarks with onions, add pepper and salt. Before that, of course, a little cooling.
Forming and stacking doves. Put two beet sheets cross-cross, add filling, roll roll. When all of them are ready, put them in a cloth. You should put a few sheets at the bottom so that the pigeons do not burn. Add a third of the hot water from the pot capacity. As soon as there is a steady boil, take 10-15 minutes. It's very important not to digest.
We recommend adding sour cream sauce immediately, in this case pour it into a pan instead of water, but it should be made liquid. Or add the sauce after the pigeons are cooked. It is prepared as follows: fry the onions in oil until it is roared, then pour sour cream mixed with a teaspoon of flour, salt and bring to a boil.
Before serving, you need to make sure that the pigeons do not fall apart, so lay them out on the plate carefully. If you cooked without sauce, then it's time to add it or just smear it with sour cream. Bon appetit!
