Ingredients
Substitutions
• 500 grams potatoes (starchy variety, e.g. russets)
• 120 grams potato starch (about one-fourth of potato volume)
• 1 egg
• Pinch of salt
• Egg: can be omitted, just increase potato starch slightly.
• Potato starch: cornstarch (texture less authentic but workable).
Allergens
Egg
1. Peel potatoes, boil until soft, and mash or press until smooth. Let cool slightly.
2. Measure the potato mass, then remove one-quarter of it. Replace that portion with potato starch.
3. Return all to the bowl, add the egg and a pinch of salt. Mix into smooth dough.
4. Roll dough into logs, cut into small pieces, and shape round dumplings.
5. Press a small indentation in the center of each (the signature Silesian look).
6. Cook in salted boiling water until they float (about 3 minutes). Remove with a slotted spoon.
How to make
Serving tip
Serve hot with beef roulades or rich gravies.
Alenka's note
“Soft, delicate, with a little hollow to catch the sauce — dumplings that make a meal complete.”
