第20章 Lesson 19 Perogies

Many Canadians love perogies. A perogy is like a dumpling. You fill a pocket of dough with a mixture of mashed potatoes and cheese. You can eat them boiled or fried. They taste great with fried onions and melted butter, and some sour cream.

You can make perogies in other flavours, too. Some people put sour cabbage in their perogies. Others like to put fruit inside, such as bits of plum or peach.
