Ingredients
8 Servings
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 60 g butter
- 60 g butter
- 240 ml cheddar cheese
- 1 egg
- 1 onion
- 2.5 g pepper
- 900 g potatoes
- 5 g salt
- 240 ml sour cream
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the flour, egg, sour cream, and melted butter to form a dough. Knead until smooth, then cover and let rest for 30 minutes.
Step 2
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and cook the potatoes until tender. Drain and mash with shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper. Set aside to cool.
Step 3
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into circles using a glass or cookie cutter.
Step 4
Place a spoonful of the potato mixture onto each dough circle. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape and press the edges to seal.
Step 5
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the perogies in batches until they float to the surface, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.
Step 6
In a large skillet, melt the remaining butter and sauté the chopped onion until golden brown. Add the perogies and fry until lightly browned on both sides.
Step 7
Serve hot with sour cream or your favorite toppings.
