Cooking
Potatoes boiled in their jackets. I decided to clean. I think many will understand me - for fresh potatoes a bit early, and the available is not as useful.
Potatoes are ready to grind (for example, using a grater or processor), add the butter, stir and put aside to cool.
While the potatoes are cooling, let's prepare the filling. Diced onions, but not very finely.
Also chop the bacon. Here careful cooks will notice in the pictures the catch. :) Yes, I allowed myself a deviation from the original recipe and used the normal fat. For this liberty I have had a couple of reasons. First, find a good smoked bacon we got is not easy, and cooked-smoked products are not to roast, there is not always desirable. Second, don't really like the taste of bacon in the fridge and found a suitable piece of bacon.
On a hot pan without oil put the bacon (lard) and the fat melted from it. Remove the cracklings and the resulting fat fry onions. Ready for Luke to return the rinds, mix well and cool. By the way this dressing perfect for vegetable dumplings with potatoes though, even with the cabbage. Recommend.
Meanwhile, our potatoes are cold. Add to it the yolks, semolina, salt and flour. Thoroughly knead until smooth. The resulting dough should come unstuck from hands.
The dough is divided into pieces such that workpiece. Approximately 40 grams.
From billet to make the cake, put the filling and carefully collected in a bag as do when forming patties. There is one subtlety. The toppings before putting in the cake, you need a good squeeze from the excess fat. E. Chekalova from the filling first forms small balls, and then rolls them in potato dough. Yeah, the fat carefully collected, it is still useful to us.
The resulting "Balls" boil in salted boiling water for 12 minutes. I always take a large pot and plenty of water for cooking any pastry. So it is larger )). The finished cakes to take out on a plate and give them to dry a little.
While the balls cook, make the Kale and breadcrumbs. Sauerkraut put out (then) 10-15 minutes with a small amount of water.
For the remainder of the stuffing a fragrant fat to roast until it will turn brown (a few minutes) the bread crumbs, add the chopped garlic and mix well.
In the resulting bread-garlic crumb roll our balls. Serves, as mentioned above, cabbage. Bon appetit!
