peroghi recipe
(1 RATING)
My mom used to make these. Instead of putting the onion in the mashed potatoes, she would saute them in the melted butter, and serve on top. To save time, she would also cut the dough in squares, instead of the circles.

How To Make peroghi recipe
-
Step 1To make the dough, mix the flour, oil, cold water and salt until a soft dough forms. Cover it with a towel and let it rest for thirty minutes before rolling it out.
-
Step 2To prepare the filling, boil the peeled Potatoes until soft. Saute onions in butter. Mix together.. Onions & shredded cheese to mashed potatoes.. add salt & pepper to taste.
-
Step 3Roll out the dough on a lightly-floured surface as thinly as possible without it tearing. Using a cup or a cookie cutter, cut out circles that are roughly 3 to 4 inches in diameter. Spoon several teaspoons of filling in the center of the circle. Brush the edges of the dough with water. Fold the circle over to make a semi-circle, sealing the dough and crimping the edges together with a fork. Make sure that no filling is leaking out of the edges and that the dough is not torn.

Step 4To cook Peroghies, Place in Large pot of boiling water. Do not crowd. Peroghies will sink to the bottom of the pot. When they are done, they will rise to the top of the pot. Serve immediately, with Sour Cream or melted butter.

Step 5You can also freeze these. I place the first layer on a waxed paper lined cookie sheet., and stack them ,with a sheet of waxed paper between layers. Put in the freezer, for about 10 minutes or so, they'll be easier to handle when putting them into Zip- Lock bags.
