My grandfather was German and used to make this, he did most of the cooking in his house.
3 lbs of potatoes, washed and peeled and quarterd.
4 eggs
3/4 cup flour
3/4 cup plain bread crumbs
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
1 small onion chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
Heat butter and olive oil in a pan and saute onions until soft and browned. set aside. Boil potatoes in salted water until soft, drain water. Mash potatoes with a potato masher in a large bowl. Mix eggs, salt, pepper, bread crumbs, onions, and paprika into potato mixture and mix well until smooth. Form into balls the size of a plum. Dip each one in flour. Add dumplings into boiling water a few at a time. When they rise to the top about 5 minutes they are done. Serve with Sauerbraten.
I love 'Kartoffelklöse' and I used to eat them to Sauerbraten,roasts and other meat dishes.These days we eat them to homemade mushroom ragout,savory onion sauce or paprika/tomato ragout.
Leftover potato dumplings I slice thinly and fry in butter and serve with cinnamon sugar and unsweetened apple sauce.Yummy.
^^^ what a splendid idea!!!
I have to find my recipe with mashed potatoes , eggs, flour and quark cheese...
Will post soon...
They are simple, you just mix boiled potatoes, twarog (quark cheese or ricotta), eggs, salt, pepper and enough flour to be able to shape it, then you just put it into boiling water until they flow out.
You can make them sweet or savory - I love the sweet version.
The savory version with melted butter and toasted dry breadcrumbs - you can eat them with mushroom sauce or ragu.
You can make the sweet version by adding some vanilla sugar into the dough and then you can eat it with cream, sugar, and cinnamon.
filled with meat sounds good and you could make a meal out of it. Do you use ground meat?
You can fill them literally with everything - meat, mushrooms, cabbage, sauteed onions and bacon bits, cheeese, fruit etc.
They can be made with ground meat, although that meat feels "grainy". Most people will make them with ground cooked meat from meat broth. That meat, mixed with sauteed onions, touch of garlic, and spices feel smooth and has better taste than just ground meat.
All of the above can be also used to make pierogies.
