- 1⁄2 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- Salt and pepper
CHIVE YOGURT
- 2 cups Plain Greek Yogurt
- 1⁄4 cup chives
- Pinch of salt
PIEROGI FILLING
- 4 small Yukon Gold potatoes
- 1 bunch green garlic, sliced
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1⁄2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt
TO ASSEMBLE PIEROGIS

- 1 stick unsalted butter
Instructions
- PIEROGI DOUGHCombine all the ingredients in a stand mixer with the hook attachment. Wrap in plastic and chill while you prepare the filling and toppings.
- CHIVE YOGURTCombine ingredients with a standard or immersion blender.
- PIEROGI FILLINGBoil the potatoes until fork-soft, then drain and mash them. In a medium sauté pan, sauté the green garlic in the butter, then remove and reserve half of the garlic. Add the cream to the pan and simmer until the garlic is soft. Turn off the heat and use an immersion blender to blend, then add to the mashed potatoes. Let cool. Fold in the parmesan cheese and the reserved green garlic.
- TO ASSEMBLE PIEROGISLightly beat the egg in a cup. Roll out the chilled pierogi dough 1⁄8 inch thick and use a glass or cookie cutter to cut out rounds. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the filling in the middle of a dough round. Brush the edge with the egg wash and fold into a half-moon, pressing the edges together to seal. In a medium sauté pan, melt the butter (do not let it brown). Cook the pierogis in batches over medium-high heat until golden brown on each side, approximately 4 to 6 minutes total. Top with chive yogurt and serve.
