Pirohi
(From old cookbook)

2 cups flour
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
butter
warm water

Fillings:
Prune
Cheese
Cabbage
Sauerkraut
Potato

Mix flour, egg and salt. Add enough water to make medium soft dough. Knead until blisters appear. Divide into two portions. Roll out one portion thin. Cut into two-inch squares. Place 1/2 teaspoon of filling on each. Fold in half to make a triangle. Pinch edges to keep filling from escaping. Follow same method for remaining portion of dough. Drop into boiling water until pirohi come to the top (about 10 minutes). After pirohi are boiled and drained, brown butter in skillet and pour over pirohi. Toss or mix well.

NOTE: I've used this recipe with success numerous times. I've found that kneading the dough in a bread machine makes it much easier to make them, and I also like potato/cheese filling with some green chiles mixed in to spice things up, even though this has been described as "sacrilege" by at least one culinary purist.
