Perogies - from scratch Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Dough
  • Place flour on counter or wooden board. Sprinkle salt on top of flour. Make a well in centre.
  • Place egg yolks and oil in well. Using the tips of your fingers, stir in circular motion, working from middle of flour mixture out and adding water with other hand, a little at a time, as you go. You have added enough water when dough begins to hold together and so just slightly sticky.
  • Form into ball, scraping up and adding any bits that stick to counter
  • Knead dough, adding a little more water if necessary, 20 to 25 times or until soft and elastic. Wrap in plastic wrap.
  • Chill at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • Potato Cheese Filling
  • Add potatoes to medium pot of boiling salted water. Cook until soft.
  • Add sour cream, yogurt or milk. Mash with potatoes masher or ricer.
  • Stir in cheese.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

    I will have to give this a try. I love perogies but have never attempted making them from scratch. My friend makes them and have never asked her how she does it.

    you might also want to melt some butter and add chopped onions and real bacon bits and pour a bit of this over perogies just before serving.

    Sorry, there was some confusion on how to put them together and how to cook them. You cut the dough into circles, then fill them with filling (use a perogie press if you like) or just pinch them closed. Then cook until finished.
    I thought it was pretty obvious, but I guess not!
