Pyrohy -pirogi
1 1/2 C water
3 Tbl oil
1 egg
4 1/2 C flour
1 tsp salt
Combine water, oil and egg, blend well. Add flour and salt. Knead dough, adding the last cup of flour until smooth and soft. Put in lightly oiled bowl and cover. Let dough rest for 20 min. Roll out on floured board, thinner then for pie crust and cut out with round cookie cutter or 2-23/4 squares. Put approx 1 tsp of filling in it, fold over making half circle and pinch edges together. Place on clean tea towel. Drop in pot of bowling water. Not too many at a time. Stir with wooden spoon to prevent sticking. when cooked they'll float to the top approx 10 min. Remove with slotted spoon to a colander and drain thoroughly. Place in a deep dish, sprinkle generously with melted butter, toss to coat. serve with sour cream /fired onions/bacon bits.
Yield 4 dozen.
To freeze, place on cookie sheet, freeze individually ( to cook from frozen drop in boiling water...etc)
