  • Preparation: 60 min
  • Cooking: 35 min
  • Makes: 1 serving (330 g)
  • Difficulty: Medium
  • Diets: Vegetarian
  • Contains: dairy, egg, gluten

Ingredients

  • 200 g Potatoes, floury (russet), raw
  • 60 g Flour, all-purpose
  • 15 g Egg yolk
  • 0.3 g Salt
  • 20 g Butter, unsalted
  • 20 g Poppy seeds, ground
  • 15 g Icing sugar

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes in their skins for 20-25 minutes until tender. Peel them while hot, press them through a potato ricer and leave to cool completely (they can be cooked the day before).
  2. Grind the poppy seeds in a spice or coffee grinder if they are whole, and mix them with the icing sugar.
  3. On a floured board, work the potato quickly with the flour, egg yolk and salt into a soft, smooth dough; knead only briefly, or it turns sticky.
  4. Roll the dough into ropes about 1.5 cm thick, cut them into 3 cm pieces and roll each between your palms into a finger-length noodle with tapered ends.
  5. Cook them in batches in a large pot of gently boiling water for 3-4 minutes after they rise to the surface, then lift them out with a slotted spoon.
  6. Melt the butter in a wide pan and toss the šišky in it for 1-2 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle with the poppy seed sugar, toss to coat and serve at once, with a little more of it on top.
