Potato Dumplings Czech Chlupaté knedlíky

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and grate them finely.

Step 2

Put the grated potatoes in a sifter and press them to squeeze out the excess liquid.

Step 3

Transfer squeezed potatoes to a bowl, add an egg, salt, and flour. Mix the ingredients until a thicker dough is created.

Step 4

Using two spoons dipped in cold water, shape small dumplings.

Step 5

Cook them in simmering salted water for about 10-15 minutes (depends on their size). The dumplings will stick to the bottom after you put them in a pot. Use a fork to peel them off so they can float to the surface.

Step 6

Take out the cooked dumplings using a sieve or a slotted spoon. Place them in a bowl and brush with lard. Keep them in a warm place until you serve them.
