Delicious Pierogi Recipe: A Traditional Polish Dish
Pierogi is a traditional Polish dish that is enjoyed by people all over the world. These little dumplings are made with a simple dough and a variety of fillings. They can be boiled, fried, or even baked. In this recipe, we will be making boiled pierogi with a potato and cheese filling.
Ingredients:
For the dough:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup water
- For the filling:
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- To make the dough, mix together the flour and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Gradually add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface for 5-10 minutes, until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- To make the filling, boil the potatoes in salted water until they are tender. Drain the potatoes and mash them with a potato masher or fork. Add the cheese, butter, and milk to the potatoes and mix until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is 1/8 inch thick. Use a round cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles of dough. Place a small spoonful of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over the filling and pinch the edges together to seal.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the pierogi to the boiling water, a few at a time, and cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Remove the pierogi with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate.
- Serve the pierogi hot with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chopped chives, if desired. Enjoy!
