Ingredients
Dough
- 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour plus more for dusting
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 3/4 cup water
Filling
- 2 cups mashed potatoes
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
For Serving
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- minced chives
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl making the dough by combining flour, eggs, sour cream and water. Slowly beat in the eggs until dough is well combined. Turn the dough out onto a clean, lightly floured surface. Knead 3 to 5 minutes. Wrap in plastic wrap and rest 30 minutes.
- In another large mixing bowl, stir together mashed potatoes, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and cheese.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, pinch of tablespoon sized pieces of dough and roll into about three dozen balls. Roll each ball out on a lightly floured surface into a 3 1/2 to 5 inch circle. Cover with a damp towel or paper towel to prevent them from drying out.
- Place a heaping tablespoon of potato filling into the center of each circle. Fold in half, pinching the sides shut with your fingers, or gently with a fork to seal. Working in small batches, boil in salted water 2 to 3 minutes, until they float. Remove and transfer to a paper towel lined plate to drain.
- Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large skillet and saute pierogi until lightly browned. Serve hot topped with sour cream and garnish with chives.
