Method
- 1
Boil the floury potatoes for 15-18 minutes until tender, then drain and mash with the cottage cheese and half the finely chopped onion.
- 2
Mix the flour, egg, a pinch of salt and enough warm water (about 130ml) to form a smooth dough. Knead for 5 minutes, then roll out thinly and cut into rounds.
- 3
Spoon a little of the potato and cheese filling onto each round, fold over and pinch the edges to seal firmly.
- 4
Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil and cook the varenyky in batches for 3-4 minutes until they float, then drain.
- 5
Fry the remaining chopped onion in the butter for 5 minutes until golden, then toss the varenyky through and serve.
