perogie

Polish filled pasta

A perogie is a filled dumpling of Eastern European origin, typically made with unleavened dough and stuffed with potato, cheese, sauerkraut, meat, or fruit.

The dumplings are boiled and often pan-fried afterward, served with sour cream or fried onions.

Also spelled pierogi, perogy, or pyrogy—the variations reflecting different transliterations and regional preferences.

We ordered a plate of perogies with bacon and onions.
