Pan-Fried Pierogies

"I use Costco's brand (Santarelli's) to make this recipe. The box has 96 oz. split into two bags. I use about half a bag (24 oz). Whatever brand you buy, just make sure the pierogies have a thick pasta shell. If they're too thin, they can tear during the pan-frying. Also, it's good to use a soft spatula (one that can withstand high heat) to turn the pierogies over."

directions

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add pierogies. Cook 4-5 minutes or until they float the top, drain.
  • In a large NON-STICK fry pan, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add onion and drained pierogies and season to taste with salt and pepper or House Seasoning.
  • Cook over high heat until the onion is soft and browned and pierogies are nicely browned. The pasta shell will get a little crunchy - it's delish!
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream.

  1. Simplicity is genius. Easy peasy perogie squeezy. Toss in a lil bacon when you fry it up and bam. I suggest a few diced chives to finish with that dollop of sour cream.
     
  2. An easy recipe for young adults just getting into the world of cooking by themselves. Recommend adding chives and some fried sausage.
