👨🍳 Fremgangsmåte
- 1
Peel, cube, and boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain thoroughly and mash them while still warm until completely smooth. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and let the potato mixture cool completely.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Ensure potatoes are well-drained to avoid a watery dough. - 2
While the potatoes cool, toast the breadcrumbs in a separate pan with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over low heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown and crunchy. Set aside.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Watch carefully to prevent burning. - 3
In a bowl, combine the cooled mashed potatoes with the egg, a pinch of salt, and 2 cups of the flour. Knead the dough until smooth and pliable. It might be slightly sticky; avoid adding too much extra flour, as this can make the dumplings tough.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: If the dough is too sticky to handle, dust your hands and the work surface lightly with flour. - 4
In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon. Combine the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon in another small bowl.

Prepare the plums by cutting around the stone, leaving them attached on one side. Remove the stone and fill the cavity with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Use ripe but firm plums for best results. - 6
Lightly flour your work surface and rolling pin. Roll out about a quarter of the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into 2.5-inch squares.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Work in batches to prevent the dough from drying out. - 7
Place a prepared plum in the center of each dough square. Fold the dough around the plum, sealing it completely to form a round dumpling. Ensure there are no gaps where the plum can leak out.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Pinch the seams tightly to seal. - 8
Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the dumplings in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Gently simmer until they float to the surface, then cook for an additional 5-7 minutes.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Simmer gently to prevent the dumplings from breaking apart. - 9
Remove the cooked dumplings with a slotted spoon, drain well, and immediately roll them in the toasted breadcrumbs. Serve hot, sprinkled with extra cinnamon-sugar if desired.
💡 Profesjonelle tips: Serve immediately for the best texture.
