NORWEGIAN POTATO DUMPLINGS RECIPE Ingredients:
5 large mealy potatoes, peeled and grated
2 large eggs
2 cups / 8,4 dl flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 pork chop, cut into bite-sized pieces
(or meat from a pork hock, ham or bacon)
For serving:
Butter, salt and pepper, chopped parsley and/or green onion
Directions
[1] Prepare mixture: Place grated potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Add eggs and mix with your hands (I find this is the easiest way given the thick, heavy batter). Add 1 cup of flour – and then keep adding flour until the potato mixture sticks together. This was about 2 cups when I made it.
[2] Form into balls: Take about 1/2 cup of the potato mixture. Place piece of pork chop in the middle and form into a ball. Repeat until all of the potatoes have been used.
[3] Cook dumplings: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add potato dumplings one at a time. Cook for 30 minutes in simmering water. At 30 minutes, take one dumpling out and test to see if the meat inside is cooked. If not, cook for a little longer. My batch took 30 minutes.
[4] For serving: Serve hot, topped with melted butter, salt and pepper, and parsley and/or chopped green onion.
