Stan

If you live in a Polish neighbourhood I'm sure you'll find a shopping center that sells pierogi and kielbasa. If not, I'm also hoping to get a quick tutorial on how to do it smile

PIEROGI RECIPE (WITH POTATO AND CHEESE)

Ingredients (serves 4-6)
3 lbs potatoes
2 lbs farmer cheese
1 med. onion
3 lbs flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 gal water for boiling
2 cups lukewarm water for dough
some bacon or sour cream

Filling
Peal and boil potatoes until cooked, drain water, make mashed potatoes, and cool down. In the meantime, finely chop the onion and fry with oil until golden, cool down. In a sizeable bowl, combine mashed potatoes, farmer cheese, onion, salt and pepper to taste. Mix all ingredients well until evenly creamy.

Dough
Pour flour on molding board, make a cone with a hole in the center, pour lukewarm water in the hole and knead until smooth and elastic. It should feel sticky, but not too thin and not sticking to hands. Some water or flour may be added if necessary. Once dough is ready take a quarter of it at the time to work with and place the rest of it in a sealed container to prevent from drying.

Sprinkle the molding board with a very thin layer of flour; roll the dough with rolling-pin until about 1/8' thick. Cut out circles with a cup or glass. Put a tablespoon of filling in each circle and fold the circle over the filling. Seal the edges by pressing them together to keep the filling inside. Place sealed pierogi in boiling water and stir gently to prevent from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Boil for about 5-10 minutes - until the pierogi surface then drain and sprinkle with vegetable oil to prevent from sticking.
Serve with sour cream or finely chopped and fried bacon.

----------

Enjoy!

my aunty Halina makes the best pierogi and said she learnt from russian grandmother

if they are boiled first then fried in good quality butter makes all the difference

Well, I guess no one is interested in the above... So, I've purchased a book, (Polish Kitchen", and perhaps you would like a recipe... However, you still have to give a story... Please try to be grammatically correct... smile

Thanks

I haven't ever cooked bigos, but if I may have a piece of advice, include all the kinds of meat you can think of, from sausage and bacon to beef. Small pieces, but make all the difference. Apart from that you need loads of sour cabbage and cumin. That's all I know.

Family story? One of my grandmothers includes bigos in the Christmas Eve meal. Every year the same story then... smile

Don't we all just love Pierodgi....Try this for the filling.

Precook and season a small amount of pork mince, mix with Chineese spring roll vegitables, you know finely sliced cabage, Bamboo shoots, onion and grated carrot. Fill your pastry and boil as usual, and its always best fried the day after.

That's how my Polish mother made them. . After the boiling, she fried them in butter and chopped onions just until they were browned on both sides. Wonderfully delicious!!

okay, i have never seen anyone make pierogi's they way my little polish grandpa does, but his pierogi's are better than any I have ever tasted. The filling contains cottage cheese, ground beef, sour kraut, polish sausage, and bacon. I couldnt tell you the mesurements or anything like that. i know how it looks and how it should taste. But let me tell you......its fantastic!!!!! my mom and i spend two days making the dough, filling and pierogi every year around christmas time. i could eat the filling with a fork (and i have.) if anyone is up for trying it out let me know how you like it. just make sure to drain the sour kraut and cottage cheese well.

Hello,

If the polish word for cabbage is Kapusta, then what is the polish word for sour kraut?

Friend of mine makes excellent (best I ever had) pierogi. Her secret is in her dough. She does not use water at all in her recipe, just sour cream.
