Preparation

Step 1

Peel potatoes and cut in 1 1/2 inch cubes. Boil in dutch oven or large pot in lots of salted water with room to add glace.

Step 2

In large bowl, stir eggs and water together with salt, using a fork. Start adding flour and mix with a wooden spoon, until the dough is not shiny and can be scooped up. It will be hard to stir.

Step 3

When potatoes are almost tender, drop dough by tablespoonfuls into pot, like dumplings. When they rise to the top, test for doneness - should not be doughy in the center. Strain glace and potatoes and dump into a large frying pan in the melted butter and oil and fry to desired doneness. We like a bit of crispness on them. Chopped onion can be fried in the butter along with the mixture for more flavour.

​

Sometimes we do two pans, one with onions and one with a scrambled egg cooked in.
