Deruny (Деруни)
I thought it'd be fun to give the recipes for any of the food they mention in the series, so here's the first! Deruny aka Ukrainian Potato Pancakes! I've made something similar myself as it's a basic recipe, so I can fully recommend making these (even though I haven't specifically made Deruny before).
Ingredients:
About 1lb of potatoes (I've always used non waxy for potato pancakes)
1 onion
1 Egg
3 Tbsp of flour
1 Tbsp of sour cream (I use greek yogurt)
Salt and pepper to taste (I don't add salt to mine until after but that's me)
Frying oil (I like peanut as it's pretty flavor neutral and good for high heat. Avocado oil is another good high heat oil if you're making these peanut free. That said I've used canola and even olive in a pinch though I don't really like either of those for frying foods.)
Grate the potatoes and onion into a bowl so you get a nice pile of potato onion mush. I would alternate grating a potato and then some onion until you run out of both because the potatoes will blacken with air exposure, but the onion stops that.
Then add all the other ingredients, except the oil, and mix together. You should have something slightly gloopier and definitely lumpier then actual pancake batter, kinda like thick applesauce.
Heat a few tbsps of oil in your pan and get it fry hot. To check if the pan is ready give it a couple of minutes and you should see the oil start to waver on the bottom of the pan. When you flick some room temp water at the oil surface it should immediately hiss/spit. It's ready.
Take a large spoon or small measuring cup and pour batter into the hot pan so you have a few small roughly 3-4 inch circles in the pan. Fry until golden brown, like 2ish minutes and then flip and do the same to the other side.
Serve these suckers hot! They go well with sour cream, yogurt, hot sauce, applesauce; Quite frankly whatever you like with your potatoes goes with this dish!
Enjoy!

Oh no, are you trying to get me cancelled by the ukrainian tumblr when they find out I don't like borscht 😂
I think his pronounciation is amazing, the historical research is extremely well-done, and using the 19th century recipe specifically is simply cool . 9/10 people love borscht, and it is our staple dish, so if you ever have an opportunity, do give it a try and make up your own mind about it!

I learned how to make pyrizhky from a friend using this recipe* from Traditional Ukrainian Cookery by Savella Stechishin (this book is a national treasure btw).
* the online recipe is undoubtedly copied from Traditional Ukrainian Cookery; but in book, the amount of yeast is "1 package" (which is about 2.25 teaspoons); yeast enhancers are omitted; and the original salt is 1.5 teaspoons.
And then I made a metric shit tonne of pyrizhky:
Tumblr media
But I also lost track of what fillings went where, so we'll call it Ukrainian Roulette:
Tumblr media
Fillings:
Mushroom
Sauerkraut (which may also contain farmer's sausage)
Tumblr media
The recipe below is copied directly from the Ukrainian Classic Kitchen forum link above:
Pyrizhky are well-liked pastries with a filling. Pyrizhky are usually made of yeast-raised dough but for important occasions, puff pastry or short pastry may be used. 
1 teaspoon sugar 1/4 cup lukewarm water 1/4 teaspoon powdered ginger or pinch of citric acid (vitamin C) or both as a dough enhancer  (optional) 1 Tablespoon active dry yeast
1 cup scalded milk 1/4 cup butter or shortening or oil 2 eggs, beaten 1 teaspoons salt 1/4 cup sugar 4 1/2 to 5 cups sifted flour
To make pyrizhky, cut off small egg-sized pieces of dough, flatten each or roll 1/4 inch thick. Place a generous portion of the filling in the center, bring the edges together, and press to seal securely -- All edges must be free of filling.
NOTE: (I wet the edges with beaten egg white for a better seal and with well floured fingers seal the dough). I then roll the pyrizhky between my palms and seal again with well floured fingers at the seam again -- this prevents the pyrizhky from opening (double sealing).
Shape into an oblong with a plump center and tapering ends and place sealed side down on a well buttered parchment lined pan. This is the traditional shape of pyrizhky.
As an alternative method, the dough may be rolled 1/4 inch thick, cut into squares, filled, and sealed as directed.
Place, sealed side down, on a greased baking sheet, spacing them 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart. Cover and let them rise in a warm place until light, for about 1 hour.
Brush them with a beaten egg diluted with 2 tablespoons of water or milk. Bake in a moderate oven on the second level (375°F) for 30 to 35  OR (350º F. ) on the first level for about 25 to 35 minutes depending on their size. Makes about 22 to 24.
COOKED MEAT FILLING: (Nachinka z varenoho abo pechenoho miasa.
Use any kind of cooked ground meat (pork, veal, beef, chicken).  Combine the meat with a chopped or grated onion, cooked in butter or bacon fat. Butter gives a much better flavour.  Add a little gravy to moisten the mixture sufficiently.  Season to taste with salt and pepper.  If desired, a small quantity of any one of the following may be added:  Cooked rice, chopped cooked mushrooms, hard cooked eggs, chopped fine.  For additional flavouring, parsley or dill may be used.
MEAT FILLING:
1 medium onion, chopped fine 4 tablespoons butter (divided) 1 pound ground beef, or half pork and half beef, or even left over cooked meat 1/2 teaspoon salt Pepper to taste 1 tablespoon flour 1/2 cup stock or water 1 teaspoon chopped parsley 2 hard cooked eggs, chopped
Cook the onion in half of the butter until it is tender. Add the remaining butter and the meat. Brown the meat lightly. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook over a low heat until done. Remove the meat. Stir the flour into the drippings. Add the soup stock or water, then cook, until the sauce comes to a boil. Combine with the meat and cool. Mix in the parsley and chopped eggs. For the above recipe I used leftover meat which I chopped up and added the same ingredients as above for meat filling.
SAUERKRAUT FILLING:
If you wish you can add other ingredients to your kapusta.  Sometimes I add a handful of seedless raisins, grated carrots, a teaspoon of brown sugar or fried mushrooms.  I like to use half and half olive oil and butter for the fat.
1 1/2 to 2 quarts sauerkraut 1 large onion, chopped fine 4 to 5 tablespoons fat Salt and pepper.
Rinse the kraut well in warm water, squeeze dry, and chop finely. Cook the onion in the fat until tender. Add the kraut and cook it for about 15 minutes, or until the kraut is tender but not overcooked. Season to taste with salt and pepper. For a mild flavored filling, add some fresh cabbage that has been cooked, squeezed dry, and chopped. This filling should be dry.
COTTAGE CHEESE FILLING:
Press the cottage cheese through a sieve or mash it well. Add the remaining ingredients and mix thoroughly. Use with a yeast-raised dough.
MUSHROOM FILLING:
2 pounds mushrooms 1 onion, chopped fine 4 tablespoons butter 1/3 cup sour cream 1 cup soft bread crumbs 1 tablespoon chopped dill 2 hard cooked eggs, chopped 1/4 teaspoons salt Pepper to taste
Clean and wash the mushrooms.  Cook  the wild variety of mushrooms in boiling water for 5 minutes and then drain thoroughly. Cultivated mushrooms need not be boiled. Chop the mushrooms very finely. Cook the onion in the butter until tender. Add the mushrooms and cream; cook over a low heat for 15 minutes. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Season to taste and cool the mixture. If the filling is crumbly, a raw egg may be added. This filling is good with a short pastry.
LIVER FILLING:
1 pound veal liver, sliced 1/4 pound bacon, sliced 1 onion, ground 1/2 cup soft bread crumbs 1/3 cup milk Salt and pepper
Scald the liver, drain, and remove the membrane. Cook the bacon until crisp and remove it from the pan. Cook the liver and onion in the hot bacon fat until the liver is browned on both sides and the onion is tender. Grind the liver, onion, and bacon. Soak the bread crumbs in the milk and combine with the liver mixture. Season to taste with salt and pepper. an egg may be added to this mixture, if desired. Chill the filling when using it with a short pastry.
GREEN ONION FILLING:
4 cups green onions, cut fine 3 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup chopped dill 3 hard cooked eggs, chopped 1/4 teaspoon salt Pepper to taste
Cook the onions in the butter until wilted. Stir in the dill and cook for 1 minute. Remove the onions from the range, add the eggs, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Use this filling with yeast-raised dough.
CABBAGE FILLING:
1 large head cabbage 1 tablespoon salt 1 onion, chopped 1/3 cup butter 1 tablespoon lemon juice Salt and pepper 2 hard cooked eggs, chopped
Shred the cabbage very finely, sprinkle with salt, and let it stand for 15 minutes. Squeeze it dry. Cook the onion in the butter until tender. Add the cabbage and cook until it is tender but not overcooked. Mix in the lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the hard cooked eggs. If desired, some chopped, cooked ham or chopped, cooked mushrooms may be added to this filling in place of eggs. Use the filling with yeast-raised dough or short pastry. Allow a generous portion of the filling when making pyrizhky because cabbage settles in baking.
SAVORY CHEESE PYRIH:
Prepare 1/2 recipe of yeast-raised dough for Pyrohy and Pyrizhky, or use bread dough when making bread. Use Cottage Cheese Filling and add to it about 1/2 teaspoon of caraway seed, if desired. A tablespoon of grated, mature onion may be used in place of the green onions. The cheese should be delicately flavoured with onion.
Roll the dough 1/2 inch thick to fit a 10 x 15 inch baking pan. Butter the pan and place the dough in it. Cover and let it rise until almost double in bulk. Spread with the cheese filling and sprinkle the top with melted butter. Cover and let it rise for about 20 minutes. Bake in a moderate oven (375 degrees F.) for 30 to 35 minutes. Cut into squares and serve warm.
COTTAGE CHEESE ZAVYVANTSI (rolls):
Prepare the dough as for Pyrohy and Pyrizhky or use bread dough when making bread. Prepare Cottage Cheese Filling. Some chopped green onions may be added to the filling, if desired. Roll the dough 1/4 inch thick, keeping it in a long and narrow rectangle. Spread with the filling and roll it up like a jelly roll. Seal the edges. Cut into 1 inch pieces. Dip each piece in melted butter and place, cut side up. in a buttered baking pan or buttered muffin pans. cover and let them rise in a warm place until light. Bake in a moderate oven (375°F.) for 30 to 35 minutes, or until done. Serve warm.
ONION ROLLS:
Prepare the dough as for Pyrizhky. Roll the dough 3/4 inch thick and cut out rounds with a large cookie cutter. Sprinkle the top of each round with a finely chopped onion. Press the onion pieces into the dough. Place the rolls on a greased baking sheet and brush with melted butter. Let them rise until very light. Bake in a moderate oven (375°F.) for about 25 minutes, or until done. Serve warm with soup or coffee.
NOTE:  If you have a bread machine you can make this dough recipe http://www.ukrainianclassickitchen.ca/index.php?topic=8457.msg9323#msg9323
SHORT PASTRY FOR PYRIZHKY:
2 cups sifted flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter or shortening 1 egg yolk 2 teaspoons lemon juice 3 to 4 tablespoons ice water
All the ingredients should be very cold. Fillings should be cold. Sift the flour with the salt. Cut in the butter or shortening with a pastry blender until the mixture resembles a coarse meal. Combine the yolk with the lemon juice and water. Sprinkle the liquid over the flour and mix lightly until the dough holds together. Chill thoroughly. Roll the dough 1/4 inch thick and cut into squares or rectangles of the desired size. Have the filling ready. Place a portion of the filling in the centre, bring the edges together, and seal in a neat ridge along the centre. Place, sealed side up, on a greased baking sheet. Brush with a beaten egg diluted with 2 tablespoons of water or milk. Bake in a hot oven (400°F) for 15 to 20 minutes.

TVP & Bulgur Ukrainian Stuffed Cabbage (Holubtsi) "Ukrainian stuffed cabbage rolls with soy mince (TVP), bulgur wheat and tomato sauce. I make my cabbage rolls with soy meat and bulgur instead of rice, because, in my opinion, bulgur wheat gives much more deeper flavor to the dish."
Tumblr media
A classic dish to make during Christmas, these Ukraniian cabbage rolls are delicious, nutritious, and very comforting. If you wish to make this gluten-free, substitute the bulgur wheat for rice. If you wish to make this recipe soy-free, substitute the TVP for mushrooms, which is the traditional vegetarian option for stuffed cabbage and is also very delicious.

Since it's Easter, once again bumping this pashka (sometimes called babka if you live in a certain part of Canada) recipe. It's a sweet bread with saffron and sometimes raisins (I leave them out bc neither my dad nor I like raisins in bread) traditionally served at Easter.

Meat and Poultry Recipe
Tumblr media
These chicken breasts are so juicy, thanks to the hidden treasure of seasoned butter tucked inside. They are then treated to a dilly coating and quickly fried to seal in all that goodness. You sure get a lot for just a little extra fuss.
