Time 30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

9 medium potatoes, peeled
1 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, beaten
1 cup all-purpose flour
⅔ cup bread crumbs
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 cup butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
¼ cup dry bread crumbs

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook until the potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes. Drain water, and place potatoes into a large bowl. Mash potatoes, leaving them slightly lumpy (just like making mashed potatoes). Mix in the salt, eggs, flour, 2/3 cup of bread crumbs, and nutmeg. Roll into walnut sized balls. If the dough is too sticky, you may want to mix in more flour or bread crumbs.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Gently drop the dumplings into the water. When they come up to the surface, allow them to boil uncovered for 3 minutes. Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon, and keep warm.
  • While you are waiting for the water to boil, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onions and 1/4 cup of bread crumbs. Cook, stirring constantly, until the onions are tender, and the sauce has thickened some. Pour sauce over the dumplings before serving.

GERMAN POTATO DUMPLINGS (KARTOFFELKLOESSE)



German Potato Dumplings (Kartoffelkloesse) image

The latest German import to my potato side dish collection are these soft, comforting dumplings drizzled in browned butter and topped with, sorry, not bacon, but something even better! Just try it to find out what it is. For best results, roast, don't boil, the potatoes so they're nice and dry. Yes, you can top these dumplings with bacon anyway, and/or sautéed onions and mushroom sauce. I served mine with sausage and red cabbage.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 large russet potatoes
1 stick unsalted butter
2 cups fresh bread cubes
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg, or to taste
2 large eggs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and let cool until easily handled.
  • Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add bread cubes; cook and stir until golden brown and crunchy, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer bread to a bowl using a slotted spoon. Reserve the browned butter in the pan.
  • Peel potatoes and place them in a large bowl. Mash and season with salt, pepper, cayenne, and nutmeg. Stir in eggs and mash until combined. Add flour; stir just until flour disappears. Do not overmix dough.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a simmer. Dampen hands with water and scoop a spoonful of the dough onto your palm. Shape into a circle, make a light indentation in the center, and place 2 or 3 croutons inside. Roll into a smooth ball, sealing in the croutons. Repeat with remaining dough and croutons.
  • Use a large spoon to lower dumplings into the simmering water, one at a time. Cook until they float to the top, 1 to 2 minutes. Cover and simmer over medium-low heat until set, flipping dumplings over halfway, until 20 minutes.
  • Place dumplings on a serving plate. Drizzle with reserved browned butter. Crumble remaining croutons on top and garnish with chives. Let dumplings firm up slightly before serving, about 10 minutes.

KARTOFFELKLOESSE (GERMAN POTATO DUMPLINGS)



Kartoffelkloesse (german Potato Dumplings) image

Just what the name implies - these are German-style potato dumplings, as found everywhere in the South of Germany, Austria and Bohemia. These are traditionally served with any roast with gravy, but most well-known as an accompaniment for a hearty Sauerbraten and red cabbage. Like polenta, second-day leftovers are a treat when sliced into slabs and fried in butter.

Time 40m

Yield 12 dumplings, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs russet potatoes (about 2 large)
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or more)
1/8 cup cornstarch (or potato starch, much preferred, if you can get it)
1 large egg
2 slices sourdough bread or 2 slices white bread (good quality, not supermarket foam crap)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon corn oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Trim crusts off bread and save them for another use.
  • Cut bread into 1/2-inch cubes and fry in butter and oil mixture until golden brown, transfer to paper towel to dry.
  • Cook scrubbed, unpeeled potatoes in large pot of boiling salted water until tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Drain.
  • Cool slightly.
  • Peel.
  • Cut potatoes into large pieces.
  • Refrigerate until cold, about 30 minutes.
  • Mash potatoes with fork or run through ricer into large bowl.
  • Mix in salt and nutmeg.
  • Add 1/2 cup flour and cornstarch.
  • Using hands, knead mixture in bowl until smooth dough forms, adding more flour by tablespoonfuls if dough is sticky.
  • Mix in egg.
  • Form dough into balls, using 1/4 cupful for each.
  • Insert bread cube into center of each dumpling; roll dumpling between palms to enclose bread cube completely and form smooth balls.
  • Working in batches, cook dumplings in large pot of nearly boiling salted water 10-15 minutes (or until dumplings rise to top).
  • Using slotted spoon, transfer dumplings to large bowl.
  • Keep covered with a damp kitchen towel as remaining dumplings are cooked.
  • You should place no more than 4-5 dumplings in your pot at any one time in order to prevent them from sticking together or touching during cooking, which will cause them to fall apart.

KARTOFFELKLöSSE (GERMAN POTATO DUMPLINGS) RECIPE - (4/5)



Kartoffelklösse (German Potato Dumplings) Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by JimMac

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 kg / 2 lbs of starchy potatoes
2 teaspoons of salt
1/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup of plain white flour
1 egg

Steps:

  • Scrub and rinse the potatoes well and place in a large saucepan of cold water. Bring the unpeeled potatoes to the boil, add salt and simmer the potatoes for around 35 minutes or until they are just tender. Drain the potatoes and cool them slightly -just enough so that you can handle them. You should now be able to peel the skins away from the flesh of the potatoes with your bare hands. Once all the potatoes are peeled, cut them into even-sized pieces and refrigerate until cold. The potatoes can be prepared the previous day, if desired. Mash the potatoes with a fork or mashing tool in a large bowl. Mix in the salt and freshly grated nutmeg. Add half a cup of flour and mix to combine. With your hands knead the mixture in the bowl until a smooth soft dough forms, add more flour by the tablespoon if the dough remains sticky. Combine one beaten egg with the mixture. Form the mixture into smooth round balls using ¼ of a cup of dough for each ball. At this stage you may wish to insert acrouton, prune or other filling into each dumpling. Croutons are traditionally used to soak up any extra moisture inside the Kartoffelkloesse. Stoned prunes are a common filling when accompanying a Roast Goose at Christmas. A small spoonful of cooked, flavoured ground beef / mince is also a tasty alternative. Seal the filling closed inside each of the Kartoffelklösse. In a large saucepan of salted simmering water, almost boiling, poach the completed dumplings in batches of 4 to 5. Do not place more than 4 to 5 dumplings in the pot at any one time - to prevent them from sticking together or touching during cooking, which could cause them to fall apart! Cook the dumplings for 10 to 15 minutes or until the dumplings rise to the surface. Remove and drain each of the Kartoffelklösse with a slotted spoon into a serving dish. Keep the dish covered to conserve heat while the remaining dumplings are cooked. (Serves 4 to 6)
