Ingredients

- 4 cups sautéed mushrooms
- 1 cup finely chopped onions
- 2 cups all
- purpose flour
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3/4 cup vegan sour cream
- 1 tsp salt (optional)
- Fresh herbs for garnish: parsley, chives, and dill
Instructions
- a. Prepare the dough by combining all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Gradually add water to form a smooth dough, then cover and let rest for 30 minutes. b. While the dough is resting, prepare the filling by sautéing mushrooms and onions until tender. Combine with mashed potatoes and vegan sour cream, seasoning to taste with salt. c. Roll out the dough and cut into circles using a biscuit or cookie cutter. d. Place a spoonful of the potato mushroom mixture in the center of each circle and fold over to form half moons, sealing the edges tightly. e. Boil the pierogi in batches for 3 4 minutes until they float to the surface. Remove and set aside on a plate. f. Arrange cooked pierogi in layers on a serving dish, interspersing fresh herbs between each layer for a vibrant presentation.
Chef’s Insight
The combination of potatoes, mushrooms, and vegan sour cream creates a rich and creamy filling that is both satisfying and guilt-free for vegans.
Notes
The dough should be pliable and easy to work with, so adjust the water as needed. Be sure to seal the edges of each pierogi tightly to prevent filling from escaping during boiling.
