MEDITERRANEAN STUFFED POTATO DUMPLINGS WITH MUSHROOM CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine goat cheese, sundried tomatoes and basil in a bowl, set aside.

Add eggs to bowl, beat mixture until potatoes and eggs are well combined. Add salt, pepper and spinach, continue beating. Slow down mixer, or stir in flour and parmesan cheese to create stiff dough.
• Divide dough into 10 balls; flatten into ¼ "thick circles. Place cheese filling in the middle of each circle. Pinch edges up around filling to create a ball, roll in palms to smooth.
• Fill a large pot half way with water, bring to a gentle boil. Add dumplings, cook for 10 minutes or until cooked through. Remove each dumpling from water with a slotted spoon.
• Using medium high heat in a heavy skillet, add diced bacon. Cook until bacon is crisp. Remove bacon, and all but 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings from pan. Add onion to skillet, cook until onion is softened. Add mushrooms to pan and continue to cook for additional four minutes or until mushrooms are browned around edges and cooked through. Add cream to pan. Cook until cream is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes. Salt to taste.

POTATO DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Peel 10-12 medium potatoes (about 7 cups).
• In a large bowl, shred potatoes. I have a 7 cup food processor and it makes the job really quick. Otherwise, a hand grater is all you need.
• In a separate small bowl -- mix the eggs and salt and pepper.
• Pour the egg mixture over the shredded potatoes and using your hands, mix well.
• Gradually add in the flour, again using your hands. This is very heavy and gooey and is usually too much work for your mixer or it's blades.
• Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil.
• Using a generous amount of flour on your hands, scoop a handful of the potato mixture into your hands and form into a ball. Place each dumpling on a cookie sheet for an easy transfer to the boiling water. (Recipe makes 10-12 baseball sized dumplings.).
• Once water reaches a rolling boil, gently add each dumpling and continue to boil until the dumplings float.
• Remove the dumplings from the water using a slotted spoon or strainer spoon and place in serving dish. Best served hot with gravy or sauerkraut.
• Dumplings also make one of the best leftover breakfast items ever! Chop into bite sized pieces and saute with butter and garlic salt to put a crowd pleasing twist on traditional hashbrowns!
