Preparation Time: 1 hour


Cooking Time: 30 minutes


Resting Time: 0 minutes


Total Time: 1 hour 30 minutes


Serving: 6 people

Ingredients:

- For the Dough:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour


- 1/2 teaspoon salt


- 1 large egg


- 3/4 cup water

- For the Filling:

- 2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed


- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese


- 1 small onion, finely chopped


- Salt and pepper to taste


- 2 tablespoons butter

- For Serving:

- Sour cream


- Chopped fresh chives

Method:

- Make the Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center, add the egg and gradually mix in the water until a dough forms. Knead on a floured surface until smooth. Cover with a cloth and let rest while you make the filling.


- Prepare the Filling: Boil the potatoes until tender. Mash them and then mix in the cheddar cheese, onion, salt, and pepper.


- Assemble the Pierogi: Roll out the dough thinly and cut out rounds with a cookie cutter. Place a spoonful of filling on each round, fold the dough over, and seal the edges.


- Cook the Pierogi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pierogi in batches and cook until they float to the surface, about 3-4 minutes. Drain and then pan-fry in butter until golden.


- Serve: Serve the pierogi hot with sour cream and sprinkle with chives.

Notes:

- You can experiment with different fillings, such as sauerkraut, minced meat, or fruits for dessert pierogi.


- Ensure the edges of the pierogi are well-sealed to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
