Same as you! He's polish and that's the traditional filling, but also sometimes meat and potato and cottage cheese instead of onion

oooh! as people have said, these are russian, and yes they are called vareniki when there is potatoes or something of the sort in them. pilmeni are ones with meat. my family members and I are experts at making these, with an assembly line and stuff. it's great fun Happy

Just to let you know I made your version of this recipe a few times and I think my fiance adores you for it.
Only change was that I added sour cream to the dough.

I`m from Poland and I`d like to add that you can put almost everything in pierogis. I love them with sauerkraut and mushrooms! But you can also have them with all kind of friut or with cheese and sugar.

They are also rather popular in Czech families as I learned to make them from my grandmother and her parents came from Czechoslovakia. You can use cheddar cheese. You can also fill them with sauerkraut/mushroom filling. Saute the mushrooms first, add kraut and saute then drain well.

Could you use a different type of cheese? Something they add to the cottage cheese here makes my mother sick.

These are exactly like the pierogi my polish grandmother used to make. I was always told that the family would make huge batches (enough for grandma, and all the 6 or 7 kids and their families) boil them to do the initial cooking of the dough then freeze them and when they were reheated they always were fried then in butter. I sometimes get the premade ones in the freezer section of the grocery store, but they just are not quite the same.......

Ocassionally got here and saw your message about "pierogi" - being russian i have to say that these are not "pierogi", these are called "vareniki" (smth. that you cook in a boiling water) and pierogi are cooked in oven or fried on a frying pan. That's it=)
