German Fried Dough Pillow Tips Recipes

Steps:

• Make dough: Mix egg yolks with sour cream and add to flour. Combine until a smooth dough is formed. Rest 30 minutes.
• Roll out half the dough at a time into a large rectangle. Use a fancy fluted cutting wheel or knife to cut into rectangles or strips.
• Heat oil in heavy duty pan or wok. (3-4 ins. deep) When oil is hot, fry 3-4 pieces of dough, turning to fry both sides.
• Remove from oil and place on paper towel lined jelly-roll pan. Sprinkle with powdered sugar/cinnamon.

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Whisk together the egg and milk in a separate bowl; stir in the flour mixture until a smooth dough is formed.
• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, cut the dough into bite sized pieces with scissors into the boiling water. Boil for 20 minutes; drain well.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat; add the knefla and potatoes. Stirring occasionally, cook until the potatoes are tender and the knefla are golden brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oil to 350 degrees F. Dust the dough with the flour. Pound out the dough as thin as possible with your hands or with a rolling pin. Cut the dough into 2 pieces. Carefully place the dough into the hot oil. Cook until the dough is browned, 1 to 2 minutes, then repeat on the other side. Carefully transfer the dough from the oil to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Place the dough on a clean plate. Drizzle the chocolate sauce over the dough and dust with the powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain.
• Peel cooked potatoes and place into a large bowl. Mash with a potato masher. Add eggs and flour and mix until well combined. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
• Use your hands to shape potato dough into oblong dumplings with two pointy ends. If the dough sticks to your hands, rinse them under cold water.
• Bring water to the boil in a large pot over high heat, then reduce temperature to a simmer. Drop small batches of the dumplings into the just simmering water. Cook until they float on the top. Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and submerge in a bowl with cold water. Remove with a slotted spoon, put them in a colander, and drain well.
