Authentic handmade pierogi filled with creamy potato and farmer's cheese, served with golden caramelized onions and tangy sour cream - a classic Polish comfort food dinner.

peeled and cubed
sliced
Boil the potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, farmer's cheese, and salt. Mix until well incorporated.
In another bowl, mix the flour, egg, and water until a dough forms. Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes.
Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 0.25 centimeter. Cut into circles using a round cutter.
Place a spoonful of the potato and cheese mixture in the center of each dough circle. Fold the dough over to form a half-moon shape and seal the edges tightly.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pierogi and cook until they float to the surface, about 3-4 minutes.
In a pan, heat the butter and add the sliced onions. Cook over medium heat until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 minutes.
Serve the boiled pierogi with caramelized onions on top and a dollop of sour cream.
