Step 1
Brown ground pork in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, ~4 minutes.
Step 2
Finely chop half the onion and stir into pork with caraway seeds and a pinch of salt. Cook 1 minute, then transfer to a bowl.
Step 3
Spoon 1 tsp pork filling into center of each wonton wrapper, wet edges with water, fold into triangle, then curl corners together.
Step 4
Heat oil in the same skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Pan-fry pierogi in batches 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
Step 5
Slice remaining onion thin and cook in butter over medium until caramelized and dark golden, ~5 minutes.
Step 6
Transfer pierogi to plates, top with caramelized onions, sour cream, and fresh dill. Serve immediately.
