Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Boil them in a large pot of salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Step 2
Drain the potatoes and mash them thoroughly in a large bowl until smooth. Allow them to cool slightly.
Step 3
Add the flour, egg, and salt to the mashed potatoes. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.
Step 4
On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long rope about 1-inch in diameter, then cut the ropes into 1-inch pieces.
Step 5
Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Drop the kluski pieces into the water in batches, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook until they float to the surface, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate.
Step 6
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 7
Toss the cooked dumplings with the buttered breadcrumbs. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and season with freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 8
Serve warm as a main dish or as a side to your favorite stew or roasted meat. Enjoy!
