Pyrohy dough

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 Egg -or-
2 Egg yolks (the less egg white you use, the softer the dough)
½ cup Water (about)

Directions

Mix the flour with the salt in a deep bowl. Add the egg and enough water to make a medium soft dough. Knead on a floured board until smooth. Too much kneading will toughen the dough. Divide the dough into 2 parts. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.

Roll the dough quite thin on a floured board or counter. Cut rounds with a large biscuit cutter or with the open end of a glass. Put the round or square on the palm of a hand, place a spoonful of filling on it, fold dough over to form a half-circle or triangle, and press the edges together. The edges should be free of filling and well sealed in order to prevent opening when boiling.

Boild in rapidly boiling salted water. Don't do too many at a time. Boil for 3 to 4 minutes - they are ready when well puffed and floating on top.

Remove pyrohy and drain. Place in a deep dish. Sprinkle with melted butter & onions if desired. Usually served with sour cream.
