Examples
“Цеста размешваюць на вадзе і (не заўжды) на яйках, для начынкі ўжываюць сечаную бараніну, цяляціну ці ялавічыну з дадаткам розных прыпраў, цыбулі, перца i солі. Калдуны татары ядуць лыжкай, каб не разарваць цеста і не дазволіць выцячы соку — дэлікатэсу для гурманаў.”
The dough is mixed with water and (not always) with eggs. Chopped lamb, veal or beef is used for the filling, with the addition of various spices, onions, pepper and salt. The Tatars eat stuffed dumplings with a spoon, in order not to tear the dough and not to let the juice leak — it's a delicacy for gourmets.
“Гаспадыні, прыкладваючы ўсё сваё ўменне, нагатавалі багата чаго, у тым ліку грэцкіх блінцоў, тоўстых і мяккіх, да якіх пасавала любая скварка; зрабілі мачанку ды з надранай бульбы калдуны.”
Using all their skills, the housewives cooked a lot of things, including fluffy Greek pancakes, which were good to eat with any cracklings. They made maczanka and potato pancakes with meat filling from finely grated potatoes.
