What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Main filling: Ground chicken → Ground porkSauce: Vinegar → MayonnaiseDough: + sauteed
  • The filling sets the base: lean ground chicken versus a generous fatty pork mince with added lard is the classic pelmeni fork in the road.
  • Boiled and served versus tossed in a hot pan after boiling - the pan finish coats every dumpling in cooking fat.
  • The dip seals it: a teaspoon of vinegar is very low in calories, a full tablespoon of mayonnaise is a shot of mostly fat on top.
