minced
In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually add water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 20 minutes.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until translucent.
Add the beef mince and ground pork to the skillet. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon. Season with salt, black pepper, and paprika.
To make the pierogi, roll out the dough to about 0.3 cm thickness. Cut out circles using a round cutter or glass.
Place a spoonful of the meat mixture onto each dough circle. Fold the dough over the filling and press the edges to seal.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pierogi in batches for about 4-5 minutes until they float to the top.
In a separate skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the cooked pierogi and fry until golden brown on both sides.
Meanwhile, slice the kielbasa and add it to the same skillet. Cook until crispy and browned.
Serve the pierogi hot with the pan-fried kielbasa and a side of sauerkraut.
