Instructions

  1. Before you start cooking: First, boil 3 medium potatoes in their skins ahead of time. Allow them to cool completely before using. Clean 12 pieces fresh plums, pat them dry, then halve and pit them.
  2. Peel the cooled potatoes and finely grate them. In a bowl, combine the grated potatoes with 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 egg, 7 ounces cream cheese, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. Knead the mixture into a smooth, non-sticky dough. If needed, add a little more flour to achieve the right consistency.
  4. Shape the dough into a cylinder and cut it into equal-sized pieces on a floured surface.
  5. Lightly press each piece of dough into the flour on both cut sides and shape it into a flat patty.
  6. Wrap a halved plum in each piece of dough, shaping it into a round dumpling.
  7. Cook the plum dumplings in gently boiling, salted water for 8-10 minutes. There is no need to flip them during cooking.
  8. Serve the plum dumplings sprinkled with ground poppy seeds and powdered sugar. As a final step, drizzle melted butter over the top.

Notes

  • SERVING:
  • SERVING: Serve the dumplings warm, cutting them in half on the plate. Sprinkle with ground poppy seeds mixed with powdered sugar, and top with melted butter.
  • The exact amount of flour needed for the dough depends on the consistency of the cream cheese. Thinner, creamier cheese will require more flour, while thicker cheese will need less.
  • Ensure the plums have a perfectly dry surface when preparing the dumplings, and make sure your hands are dry as well. Any moisture can cause the dough to erode, making it fall apart and difficult to seal the dumplings properly.
  • Halve the plums for the dumplings. If they are sour, add a little granulated sugar between the plum halves.
  • If the dumplings stick to the bottom while cooking, gently loosen them with a fork so they can float up to the surface.
