About Kolduny
Elena Kam describes kolduny as traditional Belarusian potato patties with a meat filling. Her version uses a drained grated-potato casing around a mixture of pork and beef, rather than a flour-dough dumpling.
Onion flavours both the filling and the potato casing. Sour cream joins the potato, with salt and pepper seasoning the mixture; the source leaves any further personal seasonings unnamed.
The oval patties are browned on both sides before a covered oven finish. They are explicitly served hot, with additional sour cream suggested alongside; this profile retains that household version and its mixed-meat filling.
