Instructions
-
Boil the potatoes until tender, then mash them.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, and salt. Knead the mixture until a smooth dough forms.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is about 1/8 inch thick.

Use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut out circles from the dough.

Place a spoonful of filling (such as cheese, sauerkraut, or ground meat) in the center of each circle.
-
Fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges by pressing them together with your fingers.
-
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the perogies in batches for about 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
-
Remove the perogies from the water and drain.
-
In a frying pan, melt the butter and sauté the onion until golden brown.
