  • Cooking: 15 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (364 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 40 g Rye flour
  • 40 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 25 g Egg
  • 20 g Water
  • 3 g Vegetable oil
  • 120 g Spinach, raw
  • 50 g Quark (Topfen)
  • 20 g Onion
  • 2 g Garlic
  • 20 g Butter, unsalted
  • 20 g Parmesan cheese
  • 0.1 g Nutmeg
  • 0.1 g Black pepper
  • 3 g Chives, fresh
  • 1 g Salt

Method

  1. Mix the rye and wheat flours with half the salt, add the egg, oil and lukewarm water, and knead for 10 minutes into a firm, smooth dough. Wrap it and leave to rest for 30 minutes.
  2. Blanch the spinach in boiling water for 1 minute, cool it in cold water, squeeze it as dry as you can and chop it finely.
  3. Cook the finely chopped onion and garlic in a quarter of the butter for 4-5 minutes until soft. Mix them with the spinach, the quark, half the Parmesan, the nutmeg, the pepper and the rest of the salt.
  4. Roll the dough out very thinly, about 1 mm, and cut out rounds about 7 cm across.
  5. Put a heaped teaspoon of filling on each round, fold it into a half-moon and press the edges firmly together, pushing out any air.
  6. Cook in a large pot of gently boiling water for 4-5 minutes, until they rise and the edges are tender. Meanwhile melt the rest of the butter and cook it for 2-3 minutes until it smells nutty and turns light brown.
  7. Lift the Schlutzkrapfen out with a slotted spoon, pour the brown butter over them and scatter with the rest of the Parmesan and the chives.
