4 medium sized baking potatoes, peeled, boiled and mashed.
2 cups flour
1 egg
Bread crumbs (1.5 cups)/stale or hard bread rolls to make bread crumbs
Salt
Instructions:
Mix potatoes, flour, and egg and add water to make a workable dough.
Knead the dough. If it is too loose, add some flour; if too stiff add more water.
Put aside dough and cut a handful from the mound of dough.
Roll the handful of dough on a large (preferably wooden) cutting board and roll it as thin as your pointer finger
Chop dough into 1”-1.5” pieces
Boil water in a large pot and add 1 Tbsp of salt
When water is boiling, add the cut pieces of dough and mix gently
Continue cutting, rolling, and chopping the dough until the entire mound is done
