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.
