Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Drain and let cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes in a large bowl until smooth.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; sauté onion and garlic until translucent, about 5-7 minutes.

Add sautéed onion and garlic to the mashed potatoes; mix until combined.

Season the potato mixture with salt, black pepper, and parsley; stir well.

In another bowl, combine flour and salt; create a well in the center.

Add egg and water to the well; mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.

Divide the dough into equal pieces and roll each into a circle.

Place a spoonful of potato filling in the center of each dough circle.

Fold the dough over the filling and pinch to seal tightly.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Arrange knishes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Brush the tops with melted butter or olive oil.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
