Instructions
Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.
- Sauté the chopped onion in 2 tbsp oil. Add the remaining chopped vegetables (carrots, 1 parsley root, and bell pepper), and season with salt and pepper. Sauté lightly until the vegetables release their juices, then pour in water. Prepare the dumplings while the soup simmers.
- Boil 120 g potatoes and mash them. Mix with the butter, flour, egg yolk, salt, and pepper, then add finely chopped parsley.
- Shape the dough into dumplings and cook them in the soup for 2–3 minutes.
Tip: Press the potatoes through a ricer while still warm, then let the mashed potatoes and butter cool before adding the egg yolk and flour. This will make the dough less sticky and keep the yolk from cooking in the warm potatoes.
