Varenyky (Ukrainian Dumpling)
Oleh yuliya.kitchenette.ney, Varenyky is a traditional Ukranian dish which is similar to Chinese dumplings. What makes this special is the way it is cooked and prepared. Unlike the Chinese counterpart, we decided to stuff it with an amazing mashed potato filling with some secret ingredients which we will reveal as we go on with the recipe. You will love this simple and healthy way of enjoying a meatless meal. Cheers!

Langkah 1
Filling: Peel the potatoes, chop in quarters, boil with garlic and laurel until soft. Fry diced onion until golden brown. Set aside.
Langkah 2
Drain the water, take out laurel leaves, add salt and pepper to taste, don't forget the herbs, and add half of the fried onion, set aside the rest of the onion. Mash everything until you get this nice smooth texture.
Langkah 3
Dough: Add flour, beaten egg, salted water, in a bowl. Mix everything until you get this elastic-firm texture. You may add some flour from time to time while performing this step. Set aside and cover with a towel or lid.
Langkah 4
By this time, the filling should have cooled down. Take out the dough that has been sitting for about 15-20 mins, knead it making sure you have four on the surface to avoid the dough from sticking while working on this step.
Langkah 6
Put a teaspoon of the filling into one of the cut circles and seal it up in a fashion like on the picture. Make sure you seal it up properly.
Langkah 8
Boil water with a pinch of salt. Make sure you have enough water to totally submerge the pieces and to avoid them from sticking to each other.
Langkah 10
Take them out and fry them with the rest of the sautéed onion for about a minute until these babies become golden brown.
