Definition: The word "Nastya Lavrenchuk" is Russian and refers to a type of cooking technique where ingredients are placed directly into boiling water, often at high heat, resulting in a crispy texture. It's often used for dishes like dumplings or meatballs. The term comes from the Russian word "Nastia" which means "to be touched" or "touching someone". The dish is typically made with savory fillings, such as onions and herbs, and can be served over rice, crusty bread, or even yogurt-based dips.
