Traditional Slovenian Potato Plum Dumplings

Stretch and Folds

Growing up, my grandma only made these on special occasions—and I always knew it was going to be a good day when she started boiling the potatoes.

These traditional Slovenian potato plum dumplings (slivovi cmoki) are soft, lightly sweet, and absolutely comforting.

ingredients:

For the dough: – potatoes – flour – salt

STEP 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes. Place them whole (with the skins on) in a large pot and cover with salted water. Boil for 25–30 minutes, or until they’re soft.

Drain and let them cool slightly—filling the pot with cold water helps! Peel once they’re cool enough to handle.

STEP 2

STEP 3

Grate the peeled potatoes into a large bowl or use the tool to squish potatoes.

STEP 4

Add the flour, salt, and eggs.

STEP 5

Mix everything together by hand until it becomes a soft dough.
