Description

Butsyky is an old Ukrainian dish, similar to dumplings, kluski, or varenyky without filling. They are traditionally served with cracklings, but sweet versions are also available, topped with honey, sour cream, or grated cheese. The shape can vary.

Butsyky can be added to soups or served as a main course.

Preparation

The dough, rolled out like for varenyky, cut into pieces and pinch edges like varenyky or vushky. They are then boiled and fried in butter. The finished butsyky are sprinkled with cracklings, fried onions, breadcrumbs fried in butter, or sour cream with honey.

If the boiled dough is not fried, they are called galushki or varenytsi.
