Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Russet potatoes
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Peel and cut the potatoes into even chunks. Place them in a large pot of cold water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the cooked potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot. Mash the potatoes until they are smooth and free of lumps. Allow them to cool for a few minutes.
In the mashed potatoes, make a well in the center and add the flour, large egg, baking powder, olive oil, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Mix the ingredients together gently until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Lightly flour a work surface and knead the dough briefly until it is smooth. Divide the dough into four equal portions.
Roll each portion into a long rope, about 1/2 inch in diameter. Cut the rope into 1-inch pieces to form the dumplings.
Bring a large pot of water to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Drop the dumplings into the simmering water in batches. Cook them until they rise to the surface and remain floating for about 2-3 minutes.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the dumplings to a plate and keep warm.
Sprinkle the freshly chopped parsley over the dumplings just before serving.
Serve the dumplings immediately as a side dish or with your choice of low-sodium sauce or gravy.
