Description

Delicious and hearty dumplings filled with a savory meat mixture, perfect for a comforting meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium potatoes
  • 1 cup ground beef or pork
  • 1 medium, finely chopped onion
  • 2 cloves, minced garlic
  • 1 large egg
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon, chopped parsley

Instructions

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, then drain and mash them.
  2. In a skillet, sauté the onion and garlic in butter until translucent. Add the ground meat, cooking until browned and fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, egg, and flour. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Take a portion of the dough and flatten it in your hand. Place a spoonful of the meat mixture in the center, then fold the dough over to seal the dumpling.
  5. Repeat until all the dough and filling are used.
  6. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the dumplings in batches until they float to the surface, then let them cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve hot, garnished with parsley.

Notes

  • You can use leftover meat or a variety of ground meats for the filling.
  • For extra flavor, add herbs or spices to the meat mixture.
  • Serve with sour cream or a dipping sauce if desired.
