Sauerkraut Pierogies with Fried Bacon Bits

Ingredients

  • 1 bag of JJ Wilk Sauerkraut Pierogies
  • Large pot (3 liters) of boiling water
  • Half a package of bacon, diced

Preparation

Make ahead – in a large frying pan on med-high heat fry bacon to your liking. Turn the heat off and set the fried bacon aside.
Boiling of Pierogies – Once your water starts boiling, throw in the whole bag of Sauerkraut JJ Wilk Pierogies.
Note: When you throw the Pierogies into the boiling water, the water will stop boiling. Once the water starts to boil again, start counting 6 minutes. If you forget how long the pierogies have been in the water, you can always take one Pierogy out, cut it in half and check the dough. If the dough is sticky or dry in the centre, then the pierogies need a little more cooking (1-2 minutes).
After the boiling process is complete, transfer the Sauerkraut Pierogies into the frying pan with the bacon, and turn the frying pan on medium heat to reheat the bacon while mixing the pierogies together.

Serving suggestions

1 bag of JJ Wilk Pierogies can serve 3-4 people with 8-10 pierogies each. Serve pierogies with sour cream or dip on the side.
