Instructions
- Step 1: Place 2 cups grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze firmly to remove all excess moisture, about 1 minute.
- Step 2: In a bowl, combine squeezed potatoes, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons chopped dill, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix until just combined, using your hands to form a soft dough.
- Step 3: Divide the dough into 8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a 1-inch ball, then flatten slightly into 1/2-inch thick rounds with your palm.
- Step 4: Heat 2 tablespoons water in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add dumplings in a single layer without crowding, and cook for 2 minutes until golden on the bottom.
- Step 5: Add 1/4 cup water, cover the skillet, and simmer for 8 minutes. Uncover and cook for 2 more minutes until the water evaporates and the bottoms are crisp. Serve immediately with 1/2 cup sour cream on the side.
