Potato and Cheese Knish Recipe

cheese

🥗Healthier: cottage cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Cottage cheese is lower in fat and calories while still providing creaminess.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil is a healthier fat option, while margarine can be more cost-effective.

sour cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: plain yogurt

Greek yogurt provides similar creaminess with fewer calories.

flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, then peel and cut into chunks.

In a skillet, sauté onions until golden.

In a mixing bowl, combine boiled potatoes, sautéed onions, shredded cheddar cheese, instant mashed potato flakes, garlic powder, hot sauce, and salt; mix well.

In another bowl, combine softened butter, cream cheese, sour cream, flour, and salt; mix until crumbly and form a dough.

Divide dough into portions and roll each into a circle.

Place a spoonful of filling in the center of each circle and fold over to seal.

Brush tops with beaten egg mixed with water.

Bake in a preheated oven until golden brown.
