Recipe for plum dumplings made from potato dough
For plum dumplings made from potato dough, you need the following ingredients: 500 grams of potatoes, 150 grams of flour, an egg, about 500 grams of plums, 80 grams of butter, six tablespoons of breadcrumbs, a little salt and cinnamon and sugar.
- First, you need to peel and boil the potatoes. Then mash the potatoes into a mash with a potato ricer. Then let it cool down.
- Meanwhile, halve and stone the plums and place a small spoonful of the cinnamon-sugar mixture in the hollow of the missing stone.
- Now mix the cold mashed potatoes, the flour, the egg, and some salt. If the dough is too sticky, just add more flour.
- Then form small flat circles of the same size from the dough. Then place a plum on top of this and shape the circle into a dumpling with the plum in the middle.
- Bring salted water to a boil in a large saucepan and add the dumplings. Reduce the temperature. The water should just simmer. The dumplings need 10 minutes in the water until they are ready.
- Now melt the butter in a pan, stir in the breadcrumbs and let them toast a little. Roll the dumplings in it.
- Remove the dumplings from the pan before they start to brown and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before serving. The vanilla sauce tastes particularly good with it.
