Potato dumplings (vegan)
Description
The Lenten recipe involves using only water or potato broth, vegetable oil instead of butter, and no eggs. You can make the filling with potatoes only, or add sautéed onions, mushrooms, and herbs. Serve the dumplings hot. If you've made too many, it's better to freeze them and boil just before serving.
