- •1 cup all-purpose flour
- •1/2 teaspoon salt
- •1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- •1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- •1 large egg, beaten
- •2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- •1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

- •1/4 cup white vinegar
- •1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions
- 1
Boil the quartered potatoes in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly.
- 2
Mash the potatoes until smooth. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, Parmesan, beaten egg, parsley, and thyme to form a dough.
- 3
Divide the dough into small balls and flatten slightly to form dumpling shapes.
- 4
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the dumplings for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
- 5
To make the pickled radish crunch, combine the radishes in a small bowl with white vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let sit for at least 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the radishes are slightly softened.
- 6
For the lemon mustard cream, whisk together sour cream, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl.
- 7
Serve the crispy dumplings topped with the lemon mustard cream and pickled radishes. Garnish with fresh parsley leaves.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use a different type of potato for this recipe?
A: Yes, you can substitute Yukon Gold potatoes with Russet or red potatoes. However, Yukon Golds are ideal because they have a creamy texture that helps create a smooth dough. If you use Russets, consider reducing the flour slightly as they are starchier.
Q: What can I use instead of Parmesan cheese?
A: If you don't have Parmesan cheese, Pecorino Romano or Grana Padano are excellent substitutes. For a non-dairy option, nutritional yeast can provide a similar savory flavor.
Q: How do I prevent the dumplings from falling apart while cooking?
A: Ensure the potatoes are thoroughly mashed and the dough is well mixed. If the dough feels too wet or sticky, add a small amount of additional flour. Also, make sure the frying pan is hot enough before placing the dumplings in, as this helps them hold their shape.
Q: Can I make the dumplings ahead of time?
A: Yes, you can prepare the dumpling dough up to a day in advance. Shape them into dumplings, place on a parchment-lined tray, and store covered in the refrigerator. Fry just before serving for the best texture.
Q: What is the best way to store leftovers?
A: Store any leftover dumplings, pickled radishes, and lemon mustard cream in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator. The dumplings will keep for up to 2 days, and can be reheated in a skillet to restore their crispiness. The pickled radishes and lemon mustard cream will last up to 3-4 days.
Q: Can I use a different vegetable for the pickling element?
A: Yes, you can substitute radishes with thinly sliced cucumbers, red onions, or even shredded carrots for a different flavor and texture. Adjust the pickling time based on the vegetable’s thickness.
Q: What are some serving variations for this recipe?
A: You can serve the dumplings as an appetizer, side dish, or light main course. For additional flavor, consider adding crispy bacon crumbles or smoked salmon to the dish. Pair with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
