Knedle (plural from Template:Lang-de), is a dish of boiled ball- or oval-shaped dumplings with a filling.[1][2] The dough can be potato-based or made of choux pastry; sometimes it is curd-based.[1][2][3] It is filled with fruits (whole strawberries,[4] prune plums, apricots, pieces of apples), mushrooms, curd cheese, meat etc.[1][2] Knedle are popular in Central and Eastern European countries. The fruit-filled variant can be eaten as dessert, a main dish, or side dish.

Dumplings originated in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.[5][6]

Plum knedle

Plum dumplings are known in other languages as: Template:Lang-de-AT, Template:Lang-de, Template:Lang-hu,[7] Template:Lang-hr, Template:Lang-sr or alternatively gomboce in Vojvodina, Template:Lang-sl, Template:Lang-sk,[7] Template:Lang-cz,[7] Template:Lang-pl,[8] Template:Lang-ro.[5]

The dough is typically made with mashed potatoes, eggs, and flour. The dough is flattened out and cut into squares. The plums are inserted into the dumplings by hand.[9] Some versions of the dish use noodles instead of potatoes[citation needed].

The preparation can include removing the stone and stuffing the fruit with sugar.[10] The plums are then completely wrapped in dough and dropped in boiling water. When they are ready, they are taken out, sprinkled with sugar, and served. They can also be served with breadcrumbs fried in butter and dusted in powdered sugar.
