Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information.

Papet del Mas Brut

Pleasant fruit aromas and a bright, clear color. The taste sensation in the mouth is very pleasant, light and well balanced, fresh and very cheerful feeling, good persistence, with fruit and flower notes. The aftertaste invites you to continue savoring the wine.

Instructions

  1. For the dough... In a large bowl mix together the flour and salt. Add in the egg and stir to incorporate. Add in the sour cream and butter. Using a rubber spoon, mix until just combined.
  2. Remove the dough from the bowl and knead by hand for approx 5 minutes, until combined, and some of the stickiness is gone. Form into a ball.
  3. Wrap in plastic and place in fridge overnight.
  4. For the filling... Boil the potatoes until cooked. Drain and place the potatoes back into the pot.
  5. Add in the remaining ingredients as well as salt and pepper to taste. Mash until relatively smooth, some small chunks are just fine.
  6. Assembly time! Remove the dough from the fridge and cut into 2 pieces. Roll out the dough to about a 1/4 of an inch thick.
  7. Using a glass, approx 2-3 inch, press out circles. The remaining dough can be gently kneaded back together and rolled back out. One thing I did notice is that it was helpful to let the dough rest a few minutes after kneading, it rolled out much easier.
  8. Place a small spoonful of the filling on the rounds. Get a small bowl with water and using your finger rub one side of the circle with water. Fold over to create a crescent shape. Using a fork press the ends to ensure the seam is sealed. I pressed with the fork on both sides to make sure that nothing was going to open up on me after all the work.
  9. In a pot of boiling water, cook the perogies in a few batches just until they float to the top. Place on a lightly oiled baking sheet.
  10. The onions are super simple. Toss the sliced onions into a large saut pan, over medium heat, with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Cook until golden and softened.
  11. Right before serving I browned the perogies in a few batches. Toss the boiled perogies into a large saut pan with just a few drizzles of olive oil and lightly brown on each side. Toss with the onions and ENJOY!!!
