  1. Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the egg and warm water, then knead for 8–10 minutes until smooth.
  2. Cover the dough and let it rest for 30 minutes.
  3. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 15–20 minutes, until tender. Drain and mash until smooth.
  4. Melt the butter in a skillet and cook the onion until golden, about 8–10 minutes.
  5. Mix the mashed potatoes, farmer cheese, half of the cooked onion, salt, and black pepper.
  6. Divide the dough into small portions and roll each into a thin circle.
  7. Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of each circle.
  8. Fold the dough over the filling and firmly pinch the edges to seal.

  10. Cook the Vareniki in batches for 3–5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
