Knödel, also known as German Dumplings, are a traditional dish found in German, Austrian, and Central European cuisines. These versatile, round dumplings are made from a variety of bases, including bread, potatoes, or semolina. They can be savoury or sweet, and are a staple in many hearty dishes. Savoury Knödel often accompany meat-based meals such as a roast pork, schnitzel, or goulash, and are made with ingredients like stale bread, Semmelknödel, or mashed potatoes, Kartoffelknödel. Some recipes include herbs, bacon, or onions for added flavour.
