Grind the meat with bread. Add the onions which have been sauteed in the
drippings. Season with salt and pepper. To prepare dough, mix the egg with
the flour, add a dash of salt and as much water as needed to knead a smooth
loose dough. Roll out as thinly as you can. Cut out 2 1/2 to 3 inch
squares. Put a little of the stuffing on each square. Fold to form a
triangle, pinch the edges together. Cook in a large kettle with boiling
salted water on high heat for 5 minutes. Remove with a colander spoon to a
warmed serving platter. Add the bread crumbs to the butter and fry for a
few minutes on low heat. Pour over the pierogi.
