Sig's Kartoffel Knödel (Potato Dumpling) cooking instructions
| Step 1 | Remove skin from cooked potatoes.Press the cooked potatoes through a potato ricer or mash really well. Do not blend them as this may get to runny.. |
| Step 2 | Soak the bread roll in about 3 tablespoons of milk. |
| Step 3 | If you dont like skins remove the skin on the uncooked potato before you grate them, I wash them and grate them with the skin.Grate them finely on grater, mandolin or in food processor. Put them into a clean towel and wring them out over a bowl until they are very dry. |
| Step 4 | Set aside the potato water, some potato starch will sink to the bottom,this is used in a while. |
| Step 5 | Now press out the milk soaked bread roll and add with the salt, pepper and the herbs to the raw potatoes mix well.. |
| Step 6 | Add the potato mash and the white potato starch at the bottom of the container in which you saved the potato water, try to use the starch only, not the water, taste the mixture adjust seasoning if needed, mix well.. |
| Step 7 | Heat a large pot with a good stock of choice, bring to a gentle simmer. |
| Step 8 | Wet your hands with cold water and keep them moist. Now make little balls, size is a choice, with your hands. Carefully put them into the slight simmering water.. |
| Step 9 | If you want to fill them with a few onion or ,breadcrumbs, cheese or some sauce do so as you roll them, make a dent in them then cover and roll into a ball. Do not overfill them.. |
| Step 10 | If you don't have a large pot then only add 1 or 2 dumplings at a time. Dumplings need lots of room so don't overcrowd the pot. Do not boil them keep at just a simmer. This should take about 15 minutes then they swim to the top and they are ready. |
