Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Potatoes
- 200 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 8 whole Plums
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Unsalted butter
- 100 grams Breadcrumbs
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Start by peeling the potatoes and boiling them in salted water for about 15 minutes, or until soft. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
Mash the potatoes until smooth and let them cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour, egg, and a pinch of salt. Mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour, one tablespoon at a time.
Wash and dry the plums. Carefully cut a slit on one side of each plum and remove the pit. If desired, fill the hollow space with a small amount of sugar.
Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Flatten each piece into a disk and wrap one around each plum, enclosing it completely to form a dumpling. Make sure the seams are well sealed to prevent leaking during cooking.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Carefully drop the dumplings into the water and cook for 12–15 minutes, or until they float to the surface and are tender.
While the dumplings are cooking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and toast them, stirring frequently, until golden brown. Stir in the cinnamon and 2 tablespoons of sugar.
Remove the dumplings from the water with a slotted spoon and let them drain briefly. Roll each dumpling in the toasted breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
Serve the plum dumplings warm, dusted with additional sugar if desired, and enjoy!
