Instrukcje
Filling
Peel potatoes, and boil them in water until soft. Drain out the water and mash all of the potatoes finely. You can use a grinder, for a more creamy outcome. Add salt and pepper and mix.
Chop a big onion. Add clarified butter to a non stick pan. Add the onion and sauté for 10 minutes, until they turn translucent. Take it out of the pan and add to the potatoes.
Grind the cottage cheese, until you will get a smooth consistency. You can also buy already grinded cheese, and use it instead. Add it to the potatoes.
Dough
Sift the flour through a sieve. Add oil of your choice and mix.
Add boiling water and salt. Mix it with a spoon and start kneading.
The dough should become soft and springy.
Form the dough into a ball and cover in plastic foil. Leave it for 30 minutes to “relax”, in a room temperature.
Making dumplings
Take the dough out of the foil and divide it into 3 parts. Cover 2 parts with a clean kitchen towel, so it wont dry out.
Roll one part of the dough out. It should be very thin, but not see-through. Use flour so it wont stick to the table.
Cut out circles out of the rim of a cup. 8 cm diameter would be the ideal size.
Take the circle of dough into your hands. Take a scoop of the filling with a spoon and place it on top of the dough.
Close the dough in half, and pinch the ends, so the filling wont come out.
Create a ruffle on the edges of the dumpling, by pinching the sides with pressure.
Bring to a boil a big pot of salted water. Add the dumplings and boil for 3-4 minutes.
Serve hot with fried onion.
