Equipment

  • Saucepan
  • Large Pot

Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 fl oz warm water
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 10 oz raspberries
  • 0.5 lemon (juice)
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 vanilla bean
  • 16 fl oz milk
  • 1 tbsp corn starch
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions
 

  • Knead the flour, egg, oil, salt, and water into a smooth dough, cover, and let sit for 15 minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and use a glass to cut out circles.
  • Caramelize the brown sugar in a pan over medium heat, stir in the raspberries, and add the lemon juice. Gently stir the filling until everything is mixed and then let it cool down.
  • Spoon a small portion of the raspberry filling into the center of each dough circle.
  • Fold the dough circles over and seal the edges.
  • Fill a large pot with water, add 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of sugar, and bring it to a boil. Gradually add the raspberry pierogies and cook for 3 to 5 minutes – they'll rise to the surface when done.
  • For the vanilla sauce, add the sugar, vanilla bean, and a little more than half of the milk to a saucepan. Mix the rest of the milk and the corn starch together in a separate bowl and then add it to the saucepan. Stir in the egg yolks and salt and bring to a boil while stirring. Let the sauce simmer for 30 seconds before removing from the heat.
  • Remove the vanilla bean from the saucepan and pour the vanilla sauce over the raspberry pierogies.
