Perogies

Perogies are "the name most commonly used in English speaking areas to refer to a variety of Slavic semicircular (or, in some cuisines, square) boiled dumplings of unleavened dough stuffed with varying ingredients. In English, the word pierogi and its variants are pronounced with a stress on the letter "o"." from Wikipedia

Apparently there are dessert perogies, but we've only ever had potato based filling - potato and onion, potato and bacon, potato and cheese. We eat them with sour cream or ketchup. They are a cheap and filling meal.

Thanks! I guess I could have looked that up. They sound like a good meal. Potatoes are a great standby for filling meals when meat is scarce or unaffordable.
