GRATED POTATO DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Heat a large pot of water to boiling.
• Peel potatoes, and keep submerged in cold water to prevent browning. Grate potatoes, by hand or with a food processor, into a large bowl. Drain any excess water. Stir in flour and salt. With a teaspoon, form a test dumpling. If it doesn't hold together, Stir in more flour.
• Form dumplings with a teaspoon, and gently drop into boiling water. Allow dumplings to float freely. Gently stir with wooden spoon so dumplings don't stick together. Reduce heat to slow boil. Boil for 40 minutes.
• Drain in colander. Rinse with hot water. Serve with gravy or melted butter.

SLOVAK HALUSKY DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Cook bacon cubes in a large skillet over medium-high heat, until browned. If using onion, add it to skillet and fry mixture until bacon is well cooked and onions are transparent, or about 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, add chopped potatoes in a food processor and process until completely puréed.
• Add salt and flour into potato mixture a little at a time, processing after each addition. The batter is done when a spoon will stick straight up in the dough.
• Place a third of the thick batter onto a cutting board. Using a knife, scrape about 15 small bits of dough into boiling water.
• When they all float to the top, remove with a slotted spoon and place in a large colander to drain. Repeat process with all remaining batter on board, and remaining two thirds in food processor.
• Once all dumplings are cooked, add into large skillet with bacon and combine well. Serve immediately and garnish with chives, if using.
