Delicious Gluten Free Vegetable Pierogis
Cooking gluten-free, no matter how long you have been doing it, is always difficult. You need the perfect ingredients that will not cause your creation to flop but don’t want to spend $15 dollars on a bag of almond flour. This is exactly what I had in mind when creating this and all of my recipes; not spending a lot of money but having your food taste delicious.
This homemade pierogi recipe is a family favorite that is perfect for those nights when you want to whip up something quick but still want a nutritious meal.
Ingredients
Dough
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup white rice flour
- 1/2 cup corn starch -potato starch also works
- 1/2 tsp salt
Filling
- 1/2 white onion chopped
- 1/3 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup chopped lettuce
- 2 large russet potatoes
- Salt and pepper
- Sprinkle of cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions
- Combine all the ingredients for the dough in a mixing bowl. Add more rice flour or corn starch if needed. Combine until a dough forms then place in the fridge for 1/2 hour to firm.
- Filling: skin and boil the potatoes. Once they are done chop them up into 1/4 inch square pieces
- Add the chopped white onion, shredded carrots, chopped lettuce, potatoes and salt + pepper into a bowl and combine.
- Take the dough out of the fridge and roll it out. Then take a circular cookie cutter or glass cup, cut out circles.
- Place 1/2 tbsp of your filling into each circle, fold the circle in half and crimp the edges. Repeat until all of your mixture is used up.
- To warm, take a frying pan and place 1/2 cup water with 1 tbsp canola oil into it and place your pierogis flat side down into it, cover with a tight lid and let cook on medium-high heat for 11 minutes or until the flat side becomes lightly browned and crispy.
