Baked ham dumplings - creamy, delicious and easy

Ingredients for 4 people

Fleckerl & garnish (for 4 people)

• 300 g Fleckerl (or pasta sheets, cut into diamonds)

• 200 g cooked ham (in strips or cubes)

• 100 g streaky pancetta (optional, for more flavor)

• 2 medium-sized onions

• 1 clove of garlic, finely grated

• 1 teaspoon caraway seeds (lightly crushed)

• 1 tbsp marjoram (dried)

• Salt, pepper, nutmeg

• some lard (for browning)

• some butter for the mold

• 50-60 g grated cheese (e.g. Emmental or mountain cheese)

Top casting

• 200 g sour cream

• 250 g cream

• 4 eggs

• Salt, pepper, nutmeg

Preparation

1. 1. Pre-cook the patties:

      Cook the pasta in plenty of salted water until al dente, strain and rinse with cold water.

   2. Fry the onion base:

      Slowly fry the finely chopped onions in lard until translucent and golden brown (10-15 minutes). Add the ham and bacon and fry briefly. Finally, mix in the garlic, marjoram, caraway, salt and pepper.

   3. Prepare the cast:

      Whisk the sour cream, cream, eggs and spices well.

   4. Mix everything together:

      Mix the patties, onion and ham mixture and glaze thoroughly in a large bowl and season to taste.

   5. Pour into the mold:

      Grease the baking dish with butter, pour in the mixture and sprinkle with cheese.

   6. Baking:

      Bake in a preheated oven at 175 °C (top/bottom heat) for approx. 16-20 minutes until the surface is golden brown.
