Dumplings with feta and spinach filling

Where has the time gone? Since we got back from vacation, I feel like I’m losing time and space. My brother asked me last weekend what I had been up to all week and somehow it took me quite a while to answer him. Right now we are in the middle of remodeling our new house and I am more busy organizing than doing my favorite thing: Delicious, vegan dishes to create. Honestly, I can’t wait to finally move into our new home and most importantly, cook in my new kitchen.

Vegan Austria or simply spinach dumplings

In terms of cuisine, we Bavarians are not far from our Austrian neighbors. Since I personally love the hearty cuisine of the Austrians very much, spinach dumplings just did not leave my mind. This time not as bread dumplings, but with potatoes, flour and cornmeal. The “Feta-Spinach” filling consists of onion, Spinach , garlic, almond flour, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt and pepper. The filling is then rolled into a small ball, put on the dumpling dimensions and close with your hands. Then it goes off into hot salted water and in 15 minutes everything is ready.

Who is a potato fan here?

There are yes from time to time voices that say, Potatoes are not healthy. Various studies are said to have shown this and that. I do not fully share this theory and believe that you should eat as varied as possible. With me the potato comes certainly not every day on the table, but now and then I love French fries , or a curry with Potatoes . No question!

No matter, I want my spinach dumplings now! The only hurdle in making this recipe is time. I usually love dishes that are done in under 30 minutes done, but here you need to allow a little tad more time. The potatoes are first boiled in salted water, then rinsed and peeled. In the meantime, make the filling. The finished dumplings are then once again in bubbling salted water and voliá! I recommend crispy roasted onion rings, a delicious salad and if you like you can add some melted vegan margarine.

The dumplings with feta and spinach filling are:

  • Hearty
  • filling
  • Austrian
  • aromatic
  • simple to be produced

Let’s start with this Austrian classic, a real mountaineer’s meal. I wish you a lot of fun with the re-cooking and am happy about a review at the bottom of this page. If you post a picture, use the hashtag #veganevibes.

Season with salt and knead until everything is combined into a uniform dough. If you like it very fine, you can also use a food processor for this step.
