1. Bring 4 L of water to a boil.

2. Drop all 12 perogies into the pot of boiling water.

4. Boil the perogies for approximately 8 minutes until they float to the surface of the water.

5. Remove the perogies with a slotted spoon onto a plate.

6. Optional: serve warm perogies with your choice of sauce like melted butter, sour cream, yogurt, fresh dill. Enjoy!

FRYING PEROGIES

1. Boil perogies (follow the directions above).

2. Cool the boiled perogies on a plate. Cold perogies are best for frying because they don’t stick to the hot frying pan. 

3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan at low-medium heat.

4. Place cooled perogies in the hot pan so that they don’t touch each other.

5. Fry until golden brown on both sides.

6. Optional: serve perogies with fried onions, sauerkraut, fresh dill, bacon or sausage. Enjoy!
