Enjoy a comforting and hearty dish with these homemade potato dumplings. Made with simple ingredients like potatoes, flour, and salt, these dumplings are a great addition to any meal. Serve them with your favorite sauce or gravy for a truly satisfying meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Water
  • Optional: butter, herbs, or sauce for serving

Directions

  1. Boil the diced potatoes in a large pot of water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
  2. Mash the potatoes in a large bowl until smooth. Add the salt and flour, mixing well to form a dough. If the dough is too dry, add a little water until it reaches a smooth consistency.
  3. Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion into a ball. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the center of each ball, creating a dumpling shape.
  4. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water and cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
  5. Remove the cooked dumplings with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a serving dish. Serve hot with butter, herbs, or your favorite sauce.
  6. Enjoy your homemade potato dumplings as a delicious side dish or main course!
