Busia's Polish Kluski


I got this recipe from my husband's grandmother. the first time i tried to make them, i didn't realize they were supposed to be small, like gnocchi or spaetzle, and i made them the size of golf balls - we still laugh about it! my kids can eat a whole bowl by themselves - a nice side dish with roast pork.

Steps


Mix all of the above ingredients together , except bacon , adding just enough flour to make a doughy consistency.
Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.
Smear potato mixture on a small saucer and flick about one inch pieces into the boiling water.
Start with just a few pieces - if they break apart , you need to add more flour to the mixture.
If they stay together in the boiling water , cook until they float to the top , then cook another 3-4 minutes.
Drain well and put into a casserole.
Cook bacon pieces in a small frying pan until crisp , then dump grease and bacon over the top of the kluski - toss to coat.
Serve warm with pork and applesauce.
