Ingredients

Mohnnudeln Dough

  • 500 g Potatoes peeled and diced
  • 130 g All Purpose Flour
  • 25 g Unsalted Butter
  • 1 Egg Yolk
  • Pinch Kosher Salt

For Tossing

  • 80 g Melted Butter
  • 100 g Powdered Sugar
  • 200 g Poppy Seeds ground
  • 0.5 tsp Ground Cinnamon

Instructions

  • Cook the potatoes in boiling water for 20 minutes, or until soft and easily broken apart. Drain then let potatoes cool to room temperature.
  • In a mixing bowl mash the potatoes until no chunks remain.
  • Add the flour, unsalted butter, egg yolk and pinch of salt. Combine until you've created a uniform dough.
  • To make the potato dumplings, take one spoonful of dough and roll it with one hand until 2-3 cm long. Traditional Mohnnudeln have slightly tapered ends.
  • Gently drop the potato dumplings into boiling water and let simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes. When cooked, they'll float to the top. Remove with a sieve and ensure they drain well.
  • In a nonstick skillet, melt the butter then add the noodles and stir to combine. Add the poppy seeds and cinnamon.
  • Before serving sprinkle with powdered sugar.
