Ingredients:

  • 1 egg
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 (13 1/4 oz) package medium cheese
  • 1 tbsp butter

Directions:

  1. Dough:.
  2. Put the water, milk and egg in a large bowl.
  3. Add the flour to the bowl slowly. Mix well. Knead on a board until dough is smooth and elastic. Cover and leave in warm place for about an hour or two.
  4. Roll out like for a pie crust. *A pasta roller/machine is good for this! - this dough is very elastic-y, so any help is welcome! :)
  5. Filling:.
  6. Use your largest saucepan and fill it with cubed potatoes it will be enough for the dough, and boil until a fork will go through - just as if you were making mashed potatoes. Drain potatoes when done.
  7. Fry onions in butter until translucent.
  8. Cut the cheese into cubes or shred it and add it to the drained potatoes.
  9. Add fried onions and mash it all together! I throw it all in my Kitchen Aid mixer and mix it that way.
  10. Assembly:.
  11. Cut into 2 inch circles, a glass works well if you don't have a cookie cutter. Place a teaspoon of filling on each one.
  12. Fold the dough in half, then pinch the edges together to form a ridge, thus sealing the filling inches
  13. Cover the waiting dough with a tea towel, and the finished perogies with one also, to prevent them from drying out.
  14. Cooking:.
  15. Drop into salted boiling water and stir with a wooden spoon to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Boil 4-5 minutes, strain in a colander-rinse once in cold water, then drain.
  16. Serve hot, with sour cream. May also be served with some lightly fried onions. At this point, if you wish, you also fry the perogies in a little butter until golden brown.
