Start by peeling and quartering the potatoes. Place them in a large pot filled with water, and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Drain the potatoes thoroughly and place them back in the pot. Allow them to cool for a few minutes, then mash them until smooth using a potato masher or fork. Ensure there are no lumps.
Add the salt, ground nutmeg, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Stir in the potato starch and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms. The dough should be firm yet pliable.
If the dough feels too dry or crumbly, add in the olive oil and water, mixing until the dough is cohesive and smooth.
On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into eight equal parts. Roll each part into a log about 1 inch in diameter, then cut into 1-inch pieces to form the dumplings.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the dumplings into the boiling water in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
Cook the dumplings for about 5-7 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and transfer to a serving dish.
Serve the dumplings warm with your favorite sauce or enjoy them as a side dish to a hearty meal.
