Kartoffelkloessen Potato Dumplings
From bondc 16 years agoIngredients
- 1 1/2 lbs. baking potatoes (about two) shopping list
- 1 1/2 t. salt shopping list
- 1/2 c. flour, approximately shopping list
- 1/8 c. potato starch (you can use cornstarch, if you can't get potato starch) shopping list
- 1 large egg shopping list
- 2 slices good (not spongy) bread shopping list
- 1 T. ea: butter and vegetable oil shopping list
How to make it
- Trim the breadcrusts, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Saute in the butter and oil until golden, and drain on a paper towel. Boil the potatoes until done, then drain and cool (the point is so you don't burn yourself; the potatoes don't have to be room temp). Peel, then cut into large pieces, and refrigerate the potatoes until cold. Rice the potatoes, mix with salt, and add the flour and potato starch. Add the egg, and mix with your hands until you have a dough. The dough should barely be sticky. Add more flour if you need to, but only enough to get the dough just barely sticky. Form the dough into balls, about 1/4 c. for each one. Stick a cube of bread into the center, then roll in your hands to enclose it. Simmer the klössen in salted water until they float, about ten to twelve minutes. Don't boil the water, or they'll fall apart.
