Instructions

  1. Start boiling water in a stockpot to cover the potatoes; boil for 20 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.

  2. Prepare the dough: Combine 2 cups flour and 1 ½ tsp salt in a bowl. Add 1/3 cup soy yogurt, 2 tbsp soy milk, and one egg to a well, then mix until a soft dough forms. Knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes until elastic, then wrap and rest for at least 30 minutes.

  3. Prepare the filling: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet, then sauté onions and garlic for 7-10 minutes until translucent. Process the drained potatoes, sautéed aromatics, and 1 cup soy yogurt until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Form the pierogi: Divide the dough into four sections. Roll out one section at a time to 1/8" thin and cut circles. Place filling on one half of each circle, moisten an edge with water, and fold to seal. Cover pierogi until ready to cook.

  5. Cook the pierogi: Bring several cups of salted water to a boil. Add a few pierogi at a time, ensuring they do not touch, and cook for several minutes until they float. Remove with a slotted spoon to plates and cover.

  6. Make the sauce: In a skillet over medium-low heat, whisk ¼ cup olive oil and 2 tbsp flour for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Gradually add 2 cups soy milk and chopped scallions, stirring constantly until desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

  7. Serve hot with the prepared sauce.
