Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Boil potatoes (peeled, cubed) in salted water until very tender, ~12 minutes. Drain well.

  2. Step 2

    While potatoes cook, brown diced pork in a skillet over medium-high heat until edges crisp, ~5 minutes. Add onion and cook until softened, ~2 minutes. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Mash hot potatoes until smooth. Cool 2 minutes, then fold in egg and flour until a soft dough forms.

  4. Step 4

    Divide dough into 4 portions. Flatten each, spoon pork filling in the center, then fold edges up and pinch to seal into a ball.

  5. Step 5

    Heat oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry pyzy until golden brown on all sides, ~4 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot topped with sour cream and fresh dill.
