This is very old recipe, mostly forgotten. Today, everyone makes potato dumplings or gnocchi, but believe me, this one are much better. Even more, you can eat them as a side dish to meat and sauces, also you can eat as a full lunch and even as a dessert – you just have to put sugar and cinnamon over.

Note: for vegetarians, skip lard you can use oil as well. See less

How to make it

- Soak your hands in cold water and make balls; Golf-ball size.
- Put them one after another into boiling water and cook until they start to float on the surface and than 3-5 more minutes. It really depends how hard are your dumplings (that means you have to stick to the recipe).
