Ingredients Easy Potato Dumpling Recipe
1 kg potatoes
100 g flour
100 g starch
2 eggs
salt, pepper to taste
Boil potatoes. You can peel them and cut in quarters or boil with the skin but then you need to peel them while they are hot.
Squeeze potatoes through a potato press (they must be hot). You also can use a potato masher. Potatoes must be mushy.
Let cool off until they are warm.
Add eggs, flour, starch and salt/pepper to taste.
The potato dough should be slightly moist. If you are uncertain do a test and cook one dumpling. With moist hands form dumplings of a tennis ball size.
Bring water with some salt to a boil, reduce heat a bit so that the water is slightly boiling.
Place the dumplings into the water for about 10 min. When the dumplings swim at the surface have them in the water for another 5 min.
Remove them with a slotted spoon and serve right away with your favorite meat and gravy dish such as beef rolls, goulash or beef roast.
Tip
You can add herbs or fill the dumplings with cheese, fried mushrooms or roasted onions.
