Potato Dumplings Recipe

This is a very easy dumpling recipe to make and is a favourite amongst my polish friends.
I was given this recipe by a friend many years ago and it is so easy to make that I am sure once you have tried it you will make them again and again.
You could make this as a side dish with your main meal or else use them on top of a good casserole or goulash recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

5 to 6 large potatoes, peeled, boiled and mashed roughly
3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
1 cup flour
3 eggs
1/2 cup diced bacon, including the fat- lightly fried
Large saucepan of boiling water

METHOD:

Mix all ingredients apart from the bacon in a large mixing bowl.
Form small balls about the size of a walnut and drop into the boiling water for about 5 minutes or until they rise to the top of the water. Only cook a few at a time.
Remove the dumplings with a large slotted spoon. Cook the remainder the same and then set aside, covered to keep warm.
When all are cooked, drizzle the cooked bacon bits over the dumplings just before serving.
