🍑 Plum dumplings

 

For about 12 dumplings:

• 500 g potatoes

• 150–180 g plain flour

• 1 egg

• pinch of salt

• 12 small plums

• 12 teaspoons of sugar

• a little cinnamon to taste

 

For sprinkling:

• 50 g butter

• 100 g breadcrumbs

• 2–3 tablespoons of sugar

• cinnamon to taste

 

Preparation

Boil the potatoes and mash them well. Leave them to cool for a few minutes.

Add the egg, salt and flour and quickly knead a soft dough. Do not knead for too long – if the dough is very sticky, add a little more flour.

Wash the plums and remove the pits. Put a little sugar and a pinch of cinnamon in each one.

Divide the dough into 12 pieces. Flatten each piece, place a plum in the middle and wrap it tightly with dough. Form a dumpling.

Place the dumplings in boiling salted water. When they float to the surface, cook for about 5 more minutes.

Meanwhile, melt the butter in a pan, add the breadcrumbs and fry until golden. Stir in the sugar and, if desired, cinnamon.

Drain the cooked dumplings and roll them in the fried breadcrumbs.
