Preparation

Step 1

Peel potatoes and cut in 1 1/2 inch cubes. Boil in dutch oven or large pot in lots of salted water with room to add glace.

Step 2

In large bowl, stir eggs and water together with salt, using a fork. Start adding flour and mix with a wooden spoon, until the dough is not shiny and can be scooped up. It will be hard to stir.

Step 3

When potatoes are almost tender, drop dough by tablespoonfuls into pot, like dumplings. When they rise to the top, test for doneness - should not be doughy in the center. Strain glace and potatoes and dump into a large frying pan in the melted butter and oil and fry to desired doneness. We like a bit of crispness on them. Chopped onion can be fried in the butter along with the mixture for more flavour.

Sometimes we do two pans, one with onions and one with a scrambled egg cooked in.
