Ingredients
A new family favourite that the kids will want to continue making when they move out! Take 2 favourite meals and jam them together to cook up a family meal in under 30 minutes. Perogies take the place of traditional mashed potatoes in this one-pot meal.
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
- 1 lb (500 g) lean ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each dried thyme and sage leaves
- 2 cups (500 mL) frozen diced mixed vegetables, thawed slightly
- 2 cups (500 mL) beef broth
- 1/3 cup (75 mL) all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp (2 mL) each salt and pepper
- 24 frozen potato and cheese perogies
- 1 cup (250 mL) shredded cheddar cheese
- Sour cream and thinly sliced green onions (optional)
Preparation
- In a large deep heatproof non-stick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook beef, onion, garlic, thyme and sage for about 5 minutes or until beef is longer pink. Stir in mixed vegetables to coat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together broth, flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Pour into skillet and stir to coat. Bring to a simmer, stirring. Place perogies into beef mixture in a concentric circle over top. Cover skillet with lid and simmer gently for about 12 minutes or until perogies are tender and puffed. Uncover and sprinkle cheese over perogies.
- Place skillet about 6 inches (15 cm) under preheated broiler for about 4 minutes until cheese is melted and top is light golden. Let cool slightly before serving dolloped with sour cream and green onions, if desired.
