    Potstickers. Dumplings. I'm seeing a definite trend here! And I like it!

    Back in university I studied Russian for a few years, and every year we had "Vjetchjerinka" - or "Russian Night". One year I and a fellow student cooked Borscht and Perogies for 125 people, based on recipes from her Babushka. Here's the perogy recipe we used :

    Dough :
    - 2 cups flour
    - 1 large egg
    - 1/2 tsp salt
    - 1/3 to 1/2 cup water

    Filling #1 :
    - 1 cup dry cottage cheese
    - 1/2 tsp salt
    - 1/2 tsp pepper
    - 1 tbsp chives

    Filling #2 :
    - 1 tsp grated onion
    - 2 tsp butter
    - 2 cups cold mashed potatoes
    - 1 cup grated cheddar

    I don't have details on how we put them together, but I think any basic potsticker recipe will do. All I can say is it must have been pretty easy if I did it back then ;-)
