Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ¾ pounds potatoes raw
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 egg
  • 1 ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 Tablespoon pork lard or unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Peel 1 ¾ pounds raw potatoes and finely grate them. Place the grated potatoes in a sieve and press them to remove the excess liquid.
  2. Transfer the squeezed potatoes to a bowl. Add 1 egg, 1 ½ teaspoon salt, and 2 cups all-purpose flour, then mix until a thick dough forms.
  3. Using two spoons dipped in cold water, shape the mixture into small dumplings.
  4. Cook the dumplings in simmering salted water for about 10-15 minutes, depending on their size. They will initially stick to the bottom of the pot, so use a fork to gently lift them so they can float to the surface.
  5. Remove the cooked dumplings using a sieve or a slotted spoon. Place them in a bowl and brush with 1 Tablespoon pork lard. Keep them warm until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Makes about 24-30 potato dumplings (depending on their size).
  • Serve the "chlupaté knedlíky" dumplings warm as a side dish, in place of classic potato dumplings.
  • To ensure the cooking meets your satisfaction, first cook one "chlupatý knedlík" dumpling as a test. If it falls apart, work in additional flour. If the dumpling is too hard for your taste, add a little butter to the dough.
  • Both all-purpose potatoes and those with more starch are suitable for making dumplings. Waxy potatoes are less appropriate.
