Kartoffelkloesse (Potato Dumplings)

Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 1 kg Potatoes (floury)
  • 250 g Potato flour
  • 2 tsp Salt
  • 200 ml Water

Equipment

  • Potatoe ricer

Method
 

  1. Boil the potatoes for, depending on the size, 30-45 minutes. Ideally, do this the day before. Let them cool off.
  2. Peel the potatoes and rice (press) them.
  3. Add the salt and potato flour. Form them into round dumplings.
  4. Add water to a port and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium heat, add the dumplings and simmer for about 20 minutes. The water should not boil. The dumplings are done when they float to the surface.

Notes

If you want to prep these ahead of time, only prep up to step 2. Add the potato flour as late as you can. I have found that if I prep them too early, they tend to fall apart during cooking.
