PIEROGI (POLISH DUMPLINGS)
This recipe has been a family favorite passed on from generation to generation. We traditionally make these for Christmas, but they can be made for any special event. There's some work involved, but the outcome is rewarding! After the perogies have boiled, they can be fried in some butter and onions or served with sour cream.

Steps:
- To prepare the sauerkraut filling, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the drained sauerkraut and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then remove to a plate to cool.
- For the mashed potato filling, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir into the mashed potatoes, and season with salt and white pepper.
- To make the dough, beat together the eggs and sour cream until smooth. Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder; stir into the sour cream mixture until dough comes together. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface until firm and smooth. Divide the dough in half, then roll out one half to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut into 3 inch rounds using a biscuit cutter.
- Place a small spoonful of the mashed potato filling into the center of each round. Moisten the edges with water, fold over, and press together with a fork to seal. Repeat procedure with the remaining dough and the sauerkraut filling.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add perogies and cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until pierogi float to the top. Remove with a slotted spoon.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, milk and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Pulse until the dough forms into a ball.
- Roll out the dough on a floured board and cut into 2 1/2- by 2 1/2-inch squares. Drop about 2 teaspoons of mashed potato in the center of a dough square. Dip a finger in water, run it around the edge of the square, fold the potato inside and pinch the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough and potato filling. Place the finished pierogies onto floured sheet pans.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil and drop the pierogies in. When they all float to the top, they are done, 3 to 4 minutes. Strain and place in a bowl.
- While the pierogies are cooking, in large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and saute until medium brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Pour over the pierogies, gently toss and serve.
PIEROGIES (OUTSTANDING)
Being a small business owner, the holidays especially in the Northeast part of Pennsylvania are times for ethnic foods. One of them being Pierogies; Pirohis or whatever you know them by. This particular recipe includes the addition of sour cream which makes for a wonderfully soft dough. What I especially like about this recipe is that it is a very "forgiving" dough. Very easy to roll out and very easily prepared in a food processor.

Steps:
- Filling:.
- Shred the cheese and set aside.
- Peel, cube and cook until tender the 8 potatoes. Drain.
- Place half the potatoes in a mixing bowl (I utilize the KitchenAid) add the shredded cheese and top with the remaining potatoes. Beat well, tasting if the seasoning seems correct for your taste. Let cool.
- The filling may be made the day before. Let cool completely before covering otherwise it may sweat and make the potatoes a little watery.
- Dough:.
- In a food processor bowl place all the ingredients starting first with the flour. Let process until all the dough comes into a ball and the sides of the processor are clean. Shape into a flat disc using flour is a little sticky. Wrap in plastic wrap and let rest 30 minutes.
- Flour your working area and roll the dough fairly thin. Just to give you an idea, you should get approximately 38 to 40 pierogies out of this recipe.
- Cut the dough into a circle using a top from a wide mouth canning jar or anything which is about that size. Wet the one side of each circle and place a walnut sized portion of potato mixture onto the center. Fold over and pinch well. Set each pierogie on a parchment lined cookie sheet separated from each other.
- Continue to use up all the dough.
- Bring a 5 quart pot to a boil. Using a wooden spoon keep stirring the water as you place each pierogi in to cook. Cook only about 10 at a time. Let them surface and continue to cook for about 2 minutes.
- Have a large bowl of cold water on hand. Remove the pierogies and place them in the cold water for several minutes. Drain each one well so no water remains on them and roll them in some vegetable or canola oil shaking off the excess oil. This is needed so that they won't stick together.
- You may use quart sized ziploc bags to bag about 10. Lay them place on a cookie sheet and at this point they may be frozen until ready for use.
- When preparing about 10 or 12:.I wouldn't put any more in one fry pan.
- Using a large coated fry pan, melt 1/2 to 1 stick butter or margarine. Add 1 cup diced onions and saute until soft and golden but not brown. Add about 3 tablespoons of water and lay your unfrozen pierogies on top. Cover with lid and on low flame allow them to become soft and puffy. Be careful not to cook any faster because the bottoms will get browned.
- When ready to serve pour onto a dinner sized plate. It's easier to scoop out than from a bowl.
- Really, these are just the best and I've tried many recipes.

Steps:
- Make the dough: Whisk together egg and sour cream. Whisk in milk and water. Stir in flour, 1 cup at a time.
- Turn out dough onto a floured surface. (Dough will be loose and sticky.) Using a bench scraper, turn and fold dough to knead, dusting with flour as needed, until elastic and no longer sticky, 8 to 10 minutes. (Dough will come together as you knead it. Be careful not to add too much flour, since it will toughen the dough.) Cover with an inverted bowl; let rest for 1 hour.
- Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a clean linen towel, and dust generouslywith cornmeal to prevent sticking.
- Roll out 1 piece of dough on a lightly floured surface into a 1/8-inch-thick round (keep other pieces covered).
- Cut out circles very close together, using a 3-inch cutter or glass (5 inches for the plum version). Cover with plasticwrap to prevent dough from drying. Repeat with remaining dough.
- Fill pierogi: Place filling in center of each dough circle. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Holding 1 circle in your hand, fold dough over filling. Pinch edges, forming a well-sealed crescent.
- Transfer to cornmeal-dusted towel, and loosely cover with plastic wrap. Repeat with remaining dough circles and filling. Working in batches, transfer pierogi to boiling water. They will sink to the bottom and then rise. Once they have risen, cook through, about 2 minutes more (or up to 4 minutes for plum pierogi, depending on ripeness). For savory pierogi, coat a platter with half the butter. Transfer pierogi to platter using a slotted spoon. Drizzle tops with remaining butter, and season with salt. For sweet pierogi, transfer to a platter using a slotted spoon, and dot with sour cream.

Steps:
- First, make the crispy shallots. Heat the oil in a saucepan to 180C (a cube of bread will turn golden in 15 secs). Toss the shallots in a little flour and deep-fry for 1 min or until light golden and crispy. Drain on kitchen paper. Can be made up to two days before and kept in an airtight container.
- To make the filling, heat the oil in a medium non-stick frying pan and gently fry the shallots for 10 mins until starting to turn golden.
- Add the sauerkraut and cabbage, and cook for 5-10 mins until the cabbage has softened. Taste and add a little salt if under-seasoned, or sugar if stringent. Scrape into a bowl and leave to cool completely.
- To make the dough, mix the eggs and oil with 125ml water, then gradually add in the flour, mixing well with your hands. Knead it on a well-floured surface until the dough stops sticking to your hands. You should end up with firm, elastic dough. Wrap it in cling film and rest in the fridge for at least 30 mins, or overnight.
- Flour your work surface generously. Roll out the dough to a 40cm circle or until the dough is as thick as £1 coin.
- Using a 9cm cookie cutter, cut out discs in the dough - you should end up with about 25 discs. Do not throw away the off-cuts - we throw them in with the pierogi when boiling to minimise any waste.
- Have a well-floured tray ready. Put 1 tsp of the filling into the centre of each disc. In your hand, fold in half around the filling and seal to create half-moon shapes. Put them on the floured tray, making sure they don't touch each other.
- Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil and carefully lower the pierogi in. Boil them for 2 mins or until they float to the top.
- Drain and serve with a knob of butter and some soured cream. Finish by sprinkling the crispy shallots on top to serve.
