Knefla Soup II
This recipe originates from my grandmother, who was German.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 egg
- ½ cup water
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 large potato, diced
- 1 onion, diced
- ½ pound bacon, chopped
- 3 cups milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, egg, 1/2 cup water and salt to form a dough. Cut into thin strips or small pieces.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Stir in dough, potatoes and onion. Cook 20 minutes, until potatoes are tender. Drain.
- While pasta and potatoes are cooking, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp. Save drippings.
