Chicken dumplings
Description
The recipe won't take much time. The key feature of knödel is that the mince for them should be very liquid, thanks to the cream. There's no onion or bread here, and spices are kept to a minimum. You can serve them as a hot dish with a side, vegetables, or sauce, or use them in soup, for example. Give it a try—it's amazingly delicious and very easy. Serve hot.
