So, for preparing this wonderful delicacy, you will need:

• flour - 400 g;
• salt - 0.5 tsp (or 4-5 g);
• water - 200 ml;
• oil - 3 tbsp (approximately 12 g);
• cherries - to your taste (pitted);
• sugar - for the filling (optional).

How to prepare:

Sift the flour into a deep bowl, add a little salt and mix. Then slightly warm the water, pour it into the flour, and add a little oil. Knead the dough, which should be soft, smooth, and not stick to your hands. Next, cover it with a towel and let it rest for 20-30 minutes.

While the dough is resting, prepare the cherries - remove the pits, and if desired, you can sweeten them with sugar if the berries are very sour.

After that, roll out the dough to a thin layer, cut out circles, place a little cherries in the center of each, combine the edges, and form the dumplings.

Boil in a large amount of salted water until cooked - after they float, cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Enjoy hot - with a lean sauce, honey, or just sugar. The dumplings will turn out aromatic, juicy, and incredibly tender.
