Knephla Soup (German Dumpling Soup)
Ingredients:
For the Soup:
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion, diced
2-3 carrots, sliced
2-3 celery stalks, chopped
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup water
2-3 potatoes, peeled and diced
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: cooked bacon or sausage for garnish
For the Knephla (Dumplings):
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions:
Prepare the Knephla Dough: In a bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the egg and water, mixing until a dough forms. Knead for 2-3 minutes, then set aside to rest.
Start the Soup: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onions, carrots, and celery, and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add Broth and Potatoes: Add the chicken broth, water, and potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let simmer for 10-15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Make the Dumplings: While the soup is simmering, pinch off small pieces of the knephla dough and roll them into small dumplings (about the size of a grape). Drop them into the soup.
Simmer: Continue to simmer the soup with the dumplings for another 10-12 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through.
Add Cream: Stir in the heavy cream and season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Let it heat through for a few minutes, but do not boil.
Serve: Garnish with cooked bacon or sausage if desired, and enjoy!
