Kluski Śląskie (Potato Dumplings)
Ingredients:
- approx. 500 g (1lb) of boiled potatoes
- potato flour / potato starch
- 1 egg
- salt
Instructions:
- Peel, boil, strain the potatoes and immediately thoroughly crush them with a press or grind in a food processor. Cool and evaporate thoroughly.
- Put the potatoes on a plate and pat.
- Carve 1/4 of the potatoes, remove this part and set aside.
- Pour potato flour into the free space in the same amount as removed potatoes.
- Add egg and potatoes with parts that were set aside
- Add salt and combine ingredients into a smooth dough. If necessary, add additional potato flour. Form a ball from dough.
- Peel a piece of dough the size of a larger walnut and form a ball in your hands.
- With the tip of a wooden spoon or finger make a small hole in the middle. Set the dumplings aside.
- Boil salted water in a large pot.
- Cook the first batch (half) of the small balls as follows:
- reduce the heat under the pot to a minimum and put them on.
- Keep them in hot water on minimum heat for about 10-12 minutes, occasionally stir gently.
- Water cannot boil - thanks to this, the dumplings will have a smooth, not jagged surface.
- Pick them out with a slotted spoon on a plate. Repeat with the other half of the dumplings.
Enjoy your dumplings!
