If you’re feeling a little down or just want a delicious pick-me-up that’ll fill up your tummy and make you feel warm inside, why not take this opportunity to try something new? Today’s recipe comes to us all the way from Luxembourg. It’s called kniddelen and it consists of boiled dumplings in a bacon butter sauce. It’s absolutely yummy and only requires a few, simple ingredients. Here’s how to make it.
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Bacon
- Butter
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine your salt and flour. In the middle of the mixture, make a well and crack your eggs into it. Beat until it forms into a shaggy dough. Add the milk and mix until the dough smooths out.
Boil generously salted water in a large pot. Use a spoon to form the dough into a dumpling, placing it carefully into the boiling water. (Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to look perfect!) Wait until the dumplings float to the surface and cook for an additional 30 seconds before removing and draining.
In a frying pan, cook diced bacon until brown and crispy. Add the butter and combine. Add the drained dumplings, tossing to coat, and served. Traditionally, kniddelen is served with applesauce or apple compote.
