Knedle (from German knödel, "dumpling"), is a dish of boiled potato-dough dumplings filled with plums or apricots, originating from the Austro-Hungarian Empire.^[1]^[2] Popular in Central and East European countries, especially in Poland, Hungary, Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Romania, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic,^{[citation needed]} the dish is eaten as dessert, a main dish, or side dish.

Name[]

It is known as plum dumplings in English, and in other languages as: Austrian German: Zwetschkenknödel, German: Zwetschgenknödel, Hungarian: szilvásgombóc,^[3] Serbo-Croatian: Knedle od šljiva, Knedle or alternatively Gomboce in Vojvodina, Slovene: slivovi cmoki, Slovak: slivkové knedle,^[3] Czech: švestkové knedlíky,^[3] Polish: Knedle ze śliwkami,^[4] Romanian: Găluște/Gomboți cu prune.^[1]

Preparation[]

The dough is made with mashed potatoes, eggs, and flour. The dough is flattened out and cut into squares. The plums (or apricots) are inserted inside the dumplings by hand.^[5] Some versions of the dish use noodles instead of potatoes. The preparation can include removing the stone and stuffing the fruit with sugar. The plums are then completely wrapped in dough and dropped in boiling water. When they start floating, they are taken out, sprinkled with sugar, and served. They can also be covered with breadcrumbs fried in butter. Cinnamon or sour cream are sometimes added before serving.
