👨🍳 Yapılışı
- 1
Prepare the potatoes: Peel the potatoes, cut them into uniform pieces, and place them in a large pot. Cover with cold water, add a generous pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, about 20-25 minutes. Drain the potatoes thoroughly and immediately pass them through a potato ricer or mash them very finely while still hot. Let the riced potatoes cool slightly until they are warm but not hot to the touch.
⏱️ 30 minutes - 2
Make the dough: Add the flour, 1 tsp salt, and optionally 1 egg yolk (for a richer dough, though not traditional for Öland style) to the warm riced potatoes. Knead gently until a smooth, pliable dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the dough, as this can make the kroppkakor tough. The dough should be soft but not sticky. If it's too wet, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 3
Prepare the filling: While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Add the ground pork to the skillet. Break it up with a spoon and cook until browned and cooked through. Drain off any excess fat. Stir in the allspice, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Mix well and set aside to cool.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Assemble the kroppkakor: Lightly flour your hands. Take a portion of the potato dough (about the size of a golf ball) and flatten it into a disc in your palm. Place a spoonful of the pork filling in the center. Carefully fold the dough up and around the filling, pinching the edges to seal completely. Roll gently between your palms to form a smooth, round dumpling. Ensure there are no cracks where the filling can escape. Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
⏱️ 20 minutes - 5
Cook the kroppkakor: Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully add the kroppkakor to the boiling water, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot (cook in batches if necessary). Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, or until the kroppkakor float to the surface and are cooked through. They should feel firm to the touch.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 6
Serve: Remove the cooked kroppkakor from the water using a slotted spoon. Serve immediately, traditionally with melted butter and lingonberry jam. A dollop of sour cream or a side of pickled beetroot is also a delicious accompaniment.
