Description

Enjoy a hot bowl of knefla (knoephla) soup full of tender potatoes, aromatics, and little homemade dumplings that simmer right in the broth.

Ingredients

6 potatoes, peeled and chopped
2 onions, chopped
1 carrot, sliced
1 stalk celery, sliced
4 cubes chicken bouillon
1 tablespoon dried parsley
5 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground black pepper
1/3 cup margarine
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 (12 fluid ounce) can evaporated milk

Directions

1 In a large stockpot, combine potatoes, onions, carrot, celery, bouillon cubes, parsley, water, salt, pepper, and margarine. Simmer soup until vegetables become tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
2 Meanwhile, mix flour, egg, salt, and milk together in a bowl until a uniform dough forms. Form dough into long strips; cut strips into small pieces (knefla).
3 Once vegetables are tender, add knefla to the pot and let simmer for 30 minutes.
4 Stir in evaporated milk and serve.
