Deep fried dumplings with seasoned ground beef. This is a favorite in Germany. Our family is German and my grandfather taught me how to me it! Recipe sounds odd. Take a chance. I guarantee your family will love it!

Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons salt
3 eggs
2 cups milk
8 ounces extra lean ground beef
1 small onion, diced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 quart oil for deep frying

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix together the ground beef, onion, salt and pepper until well blended. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour and salt. Pour in the eggs and milk, and stir until well blended using a sturdy spoon. Form the dough into 2 inch balls, and roll out into circles 1/4 inch thick on a floured surface.
  • Form the beef into golf ball sized balls, and place each one onto one half of a dough circle. Fold the other halves of the circles over to enclose the dough. Seal the edges using a saucer or pressing with your fingers.
  • Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C), or over medium-high heat in a large deep skillet. Fry the Keuchle until golden brown, turning once. It should take about 10 minutes total for each batch.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. I added some extra spices to the meat mixture and it turned out really well.
