Czech Dumplings image

This is a recipe from my Czech grandmother. The dumplings are a mess while they are boiling, but they plate nicely. Serve with drawn butter. We always had these served with boiled ham and sauerkraut. The recipe yields one dumpling -- which is around two servings. Also, these are good the second day fried up in a skillet with a little butter.
