METHOD⠀⠀
Peel and chop the potatoes.⠀⠀
Thinly slice the onions.⠀⠀
In a pot with boiling water add the potatoes and cook for 20-30 minutes until fork tender.⠀⠀
To caramelize the onions add 1 cup of water into a pan. Add the onions and continuously stir and check on them. Do this at a very low heat.⠀⠀
Prepare dough by adding all ingredients into a bowl and using a fork to lightly combine dough together.⠀⠀
Once a shaggy dough has formed, spill it out onto a clean surface and begin to knead with hands.⠀⠀
This will take about 10 minutes and work until a smooth dough is formed. If the dough feels a little dry add in 1 tbsp of water.⠀⠀
Once you can form it into a ball let it rest for 15-20 minutes. Cover it while it rests so it doesn’t dry out.⠀⠀
The potatoes should now be done and you can add drain them.⠀⠀
Add in the rest of the filling ingredients except the vegan cheese and mash the potatoes. Get it as fluffy and mashed as possible.⠀⠀
Once the potatoes are cooled down you can then add in the vegan cheese. Mix to distribute it evenly
