Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1.5 cups Potato starch
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Start by peeling and quartering the potatoes. Place them in a large pot filled with water, and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Step 2
Drain the potatoes thoroughly and place them back in the pot. Allow them to cool for a few minutes, then mash them until smooth using a potato masher or fork. Ensure there are no lumps.
Step 3
Add the salt, ground nutmeg, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Stir in the potato starch and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms. The dough should be firm yet pliable.
Step 4
If the dough feels too dry or crumbly, add in the olive oil and water, mixing until the dough is cohesive and smooth.
Step 5
On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into eight equal parts. Roll each part into a log about 1 inch in diameter, then cut into 1-inch pieces to form the dumplings.
Step 6
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the dumplings into the boiling water in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
Step 7
Cook the dumplings for about 5-7 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and transfer to a serving dish.
Step 8
Serve the dumplings warm with your favorite sauce or enjoy them as a side dish to a hearty meal.
