Instructions

  1. Peel and finely grate the potatoes, then squeeze them in a cloth to remove as much water as possible.
  2. Mix the grated potato with the flour, egg, salt and a pinch of nutmeg to get a smooth dough.
  3. Fry the bacon and sliced onion in a pan until golden, then drain off the excess fat.
  4. Shape the dough into balls, make a hole in the centre and slip a spoonful of filling into each, then seal them carefully.
  5. Drop the balls into simmering salted water and cook for about 40 minutes at a gentle simmer.
  6. Drain the kumla and serve them hot, drizzled with melted butter.

Variations and tips

Vegetarian version. Replace the bacon with caramelised onions and a pinch of smoked paprika.

Using what you have. If the grated potato is too wet, add 1 tablespoon of starch to hold the dough together.
