Ingredients
  

  • For the Dough:
  • 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour plus extra for dusting
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup warm water
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or melted butter
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • For the Filling:
  • 2 cups mashed potatoes about 3 medium potatoes
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: garlic powder or fresh herbs

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Rolling Pin
  • Cookie cutter or glass (for circles)
  • Large pot
  • Slotted spoon
  • Frying pan (optional for pan-frying)

Method
 

  1. Make the Dough: Mix flour and salt. Add egg and oil, then water gradually. Knead lightly, cover, and rest 10 minutes.
  2. Prepare the Filling: Boil and mash potatoes. Mix in cheese, onions, and seasonings.
  3. Assemble Perogies: Roll dough 1/8 inch thick, cut circles, add 1–2 tsp filling, fold into half-moons, seal edges with a fork.
  4. Cook: Boil in salted water until they float (3–5 min). Optional: pan-fry in butter for golden edges.

Notes
