How to Make Potato Dumplings

Potato dumplings are an Eastern European dish. They're ideal for winter food when you need warming up and comfort food.

EditIngredients

  • 2 eggs (egg replacer will also work, follow the instructions on the package)
  • 2 cups of flour, + flour for rolling dough
  • 1 tablespoon of salt, + extra 1/2 teaspoon salt for water
  • 1.3-1.8kg, 3 1/2 to 4 lbs potatoes, boiled
  • Large kettle of boiling water (for cooking the dumplings)

EditSteps

  1. Place the eggs, flour and tablespoon of salt into a mixing bowl. Stir in the mashed potatoes until combined and a dough is created.

  5. Drain the water and gently remove the dumplings. Serve either in a sauce or as they are with other accompaniments. They're fairly bland, so they are best served as part of a food such as a stew or added to soup.
