Kalduny or kolduny (, , ) are dumplings stuffed with meat, mushrooms or other ingredients, made in Belarusian, Lithuanian, and Polish cuisines, akin to the Polish pierogi, Russian pelmeni and the Ukrainian varenyky.
In Slavic languages the word means “magicians” or “sorcerers”, but it is unclear how the word became associated with the dish.
