Sausage Filled Potato Dumplings Recipe.

Ingredients:

14 ounces turkey sausage, removed from it's casing
1 small or ½ medium onion, finely chopped
1 TSP dried sage
1 TSP fennel seeds
3 large russet potatoes about 14 ounces each, cooked, peeled, mashed and allowed to cool * see note
½ TSP salt
¼ TSP pepper
1 egg
1 TBSP flour
Vegetable oil

Recipe Instructions:

Add the sausage meat, onion, sage and fennel to a sauté pan.

Cook over medium heat, breaking up the meat as it browns, about 10 minutes.

Transfer the sausage to a bowl and set aside.

Add the salt, pepper, egg and flour to the mashed potatoes.

Mix well until the egg and flour are well combined.

Take a golf ball size handful of potato and shape into a flat pancake.

Place 1 TBSP of sausage in the center, then place another pancake of potato on top, sealing the edges.
Shape into ‘hockey' puck shapes.

Add the oil ¼ to a sauté pan over medium heat.

Once the oil starts to ripple, carefully add 3 dumplings (don't overcrowd the pan).

Fry the dumplings for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.
Drain on a paper towel and serve warm.


Notes

A quick way to cook potatoes: Prick holes in the potatoes with a fork and microwave them 1 at a time on high for 4 minutes, turn over and repeat.
Allow to cool enough to handle, then they are easy to peel and mash.
