Ingredients

  • 200 g rye flour
  • 100 g wheat flour type 550
  • 2 eggs
  • 80-100 ml lukewarm water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 250 g leaf spinach
  • 200 g curd or well-drained quark
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 50 g mountain cheese
  • 70 g butter for serving
  • Salt, pepper, nutmeg and chives

Instructions

  1. Knead both flours with eggs, oil, a pinch of salt and initially 80 ml of water to form a smooth dough; Let rest covered for 30 minutes.
  2. Finely dice the onion and sauté in 1 tablespoon of butter until translucent. Add spinach, let it wilt and squeeze out the liquid well; then chop finely.
  3. Mix spinach with curd and finely grated mountain cheese; season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
  4. Roll out the dough thinly, cut out circles of about 8 cm, put a little filling on each, close them in a half-moon shape and press the edges carefully.
  5. Cook in portions in gently simmering salted water for 4-6 minutes until the pasta comes to the surface.
  6. Lightly brown the butter, cover the Schlutzkrapfen with it and serve with chives.

Tips

  • The filling must be dry enough; Spinach that is too wet will open the dumplings when cooking.
