Plum potato dumplings with cottage cheese and poppy seed oil
An autumn classic that you must try in our version. Delicate potato plum dumplings coated in poppy seed flour with sugar, sprinkled with cottage cheese and topped with poppy seed oil.
To prepare the dough, you will need:
Boil the potatoes in their skins, peel them, let them cool and grate them finely while cold. It is best to cook them a day in advance. Salt them, add eggs, semolina and flour and make a stiffer dough, adding more semolina or flour as needed. We work quickly with potato dough, as the dough tends to thin out if we work it for a long time.
On a floured board, we wrap the plums, either whole or in halves, in the dough and shape them into dumplings. We put the dumplings in boiling salted water and carefully lift them from the bottom with a wooden spoon so that they do not stick to it. We cook slowly for about 8 minutes or until the dumplings float. We take out the finished dumplings and let them drain.
Finally, we coat the dumplings in a mixture of poppy seed flour (or ground poppy seed cake) and powdered sugar and sprinkle them on plates with grated cottage cheese and pour poppy seed oil over them.
Enjoy!
