Place flour in a bowl. Add the rest of the ingredients. Turn dough onto a floured board and knead until smooth, adding more flour if needed. Roll out dough try to make it thin.Cut out 3- inch circles. Place filling, brush boards with a little egg white, fold like turnovers, pressing the boards. Cook in salted boiling water until they rise to the surface. Potato Filling: Cook onions in fat until they are crisp and almost brown. Peel the potatoes as soon as they are cool enough to handle.Mash the potatoes adding the onions along with the fat.Season. Savory Cheese Filling: Stir everything together and use. *NOTE: I serve my potato varenikes topped with onions cooked in oil. The cheese ones are served with melted butter.
