Vareniki make a particularly delicious and useful dish, because they can be served as a savoury or as a sweet, according to the filling. They are excellent stuffed with mashed potatoes, then served with melted butter poured over, and chopped onion or chives. When filled with fruit they can be served with a fruit syrup sauce or sour-cream yoghourt.
