Instructions

1

Prepare the Dough

In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center, and add the egg and water. Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and let it rest for 30 minutes.

2

Make the Filling

Peel and boil the potatoes until tender. In a skillet, melt butter and sauté the chopped onion until golden. Mash the potatoes and mix with sautéed onions, cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper. Allow the filling to cool.

3

Assemble the Pierogis

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/8 inch thickness. Cut out circles using a round cutter. Place about a tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over and pinch the edges to seal.

4

Cook the Pierogis

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the pierogis in batches and cook until they float to the top, about 3-5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain.

5

Serve

Serve hot, optionally topped with sautéed onions, sour cream, or fresh herbs.
