Preparation method

Prepare the potato dough

1

Boil the floury potatoes in their skins in salted water until tender. Peel while still hot and press through a potato ricer onto a work surface, then allow to steam off completely and cool.

2

Add the plain wheat flour, soft butter, egg, 1 tsp salt, and 1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg to the cooled potatoes. Knead quickly into a smooth, pliable dough and let rest for about 15 minutes.

Brown the minced meat filling

1

Finely chop the onion and garlic cloves. Heat a little clarified butter in a pan and saute the onion until translucent. Add the mixed minced meat and fry, stirring, until crumbly.

Chef's tip

To prevent the potato dough from becoming sticky, make sure to let the potatoes steam off completely after boiling and ricing. Dough worked while too warm requires more flour and becomes tough instead of light.

Leftovers can easily be crisped up again in a preheated oven at 180 °C top/bottom heat for about 8–10 minutes.
