Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 0.5 cups warm water
  • 0.5 lb potatoes cooked and mashed
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp butter for sautéing
  • 0.25 cup chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • In a bowl, mix flour and salt. Create a well in the center and add the egg and warm water. Stir until a dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth. Let it rest while preparing the filling.
  • Combine mashed potatoes and cheddar in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and season with salt.
  • Roll out the dough to about 1/8-inch thick. Cut into circles using a glass.
  • Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Fold over and seal the edges by pressing with a fork.
  • Boil a pot of water, then cook the pierogi in batches for about 5 minutes or until they float.
  • In a skillet, melt butter and sauté the boiled pierogi until golden brown on both sides.
  • Serve hot, garnished with green onions for a fresh touch.

Notes

Add a dollop of sour cream on top for extra richness and flavor!
