How to make pork roast and potato dumplings

  • In a large pot, boil potatoes in salted water with the skins on.
  • Peel and put them through a ricer. If you don’t have a ricer, use the back of a spoon to smash potatoes through a sieve.
  • Let cool completely. Refrigerate.
  • The next day, set a large pot of salted water to boil.
  • To the cooled, riced potatoes add eggs and 8 to 14 tablespoons of flour, depending on how starchy the potatoes are.
  • Add salt, nutmeg and parsley.
  • Using your hands, form potatoes into balls between the size of golf and tennis balls.
  • Add the potato balls to the boiling water but do not let the water continue to boil.
  • When they float to the top in 15 to 20 minutes, they are done.
  • In a large, heavy pot, heat oil.
  • Sprinkle the roast with salt, pepper and paprika. Brown quickly in oil.
  • Add onions and brown them, too.
  • Turn heat down to medium-low. Add a little water.
  • A carrot and a couple of fresh tomatoes can also be added if desired.
  • Cover and cook for 2 hours, turning occasionally.
  • To make gravy, remove the roast and add a little water to the pan to deglaze it.
  • Make gravy by adding a little flour or cornstarch to thicken the drippings.
  • Serve dumplings and pork roast with a fresh butter lettuce salad, red cabbage or sauerkraut.
