PIEROGI CASSEROLE



Pierogi Casserole image

Provided by Michael Symon : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 large egg
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more for the baking dish
3/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish, optional
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling the dough
2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
1 cup heavy cream, heated until hot
8 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound bacon, chopped
2 large yellow onions, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups shredded Gruyere
1 1/2 cups shredded farmer's cheese

Steps:

  • For the pierogi dough: Combine the egg, butter, sour cream, chives and salt with your hands in a bowl. Don't worry if the mixture is not uniform and, as with pie dough, don't overwork it. Add the flour and mix with your hands until a dough forms. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate the dough at least 2 hours and up to 2 days.
  • For the filling: Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with 2 inches of cold water. Bring to a boil. Season the water generously with salt. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until a knife easily pierces the potatoes. Drain and return the potatoes to the pot. Mash, slowly mixing in the hot cream and cold butter. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
  • Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the bacon, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon. Reduce the heat to medium, add the onions and toss to coat with the bacon fat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are caramelized and sweet. Let cool.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 13-by-9-inch casserole dish or metal pan.
  • Roll out the pierogi dough with a rolling pin on a lightly floured work surface to a 1/8-inch-thick rectangle. Cut into 4-by-13-inch strips, re-rolling the scraps as necessary. You will need 14 to 20 strips.
  • To assemble: Have the mashed potatoes, crisp bacon, caramelized onions, pasta strips and cheeses ready on a work surface. Arrange one layer of pierogi dough strips on the bottom of the buttered casserole dish, slightly overlapping the edges of the strips. Spread a 1/2-inch layer of potatoes on top of the dough. Top with some caramelized onions, bacon and a sprinkling of both Gruyere and farmer's cheese. Repeat the layers to use the remaining ingredients, finishing with the dough, followed by some Gruyere and farmer's cheese. Season the top with pepper.
  • Bake until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese on top is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let rest 15 to 20 minutes and then serve with a dollop of sour cream and a sprinkle of chives if using.

Categories     Potato

Time 40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup mashed potatoes (instant or leftovers is fine)
1 lb shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup butter
2 -3 medium onions, diced
9 -12 lasagna noodles

  • Cover with foil and bake in a 350° oven for 25-30 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your pierogi casserole even more delicious. Look for pierogies that are made with real potatoes, cheese, and meat. Use a good quality cheese that melts well, such as cheddar or mozzarella. And be sure to use fresh vegetables and herbs.
  • Don't overcook the pierogies: Pierogies are best when they are cooked through but still have a slight chew to them. Overcooking them will make them mushy.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The toppings are what really make this casserole special. Feel free to mix and match your favorites. Some popular options include cheese, sour cream, bacon, onions, and chives.
  • Serve immediately: Pierogi casserole is best served hot out of the oven. The pierogies will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if they sit for too long.

Conclusion:

Pierogi casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to use up leftover pierogies, and it's also a great dish to serve to a crowd. With its creamy sauce, cheesy topping, and flavorful pierogies, this casserole is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this pierogi casserole a try.
