Method
- 1 Grate the raw potatoes and squeeze them thoroughly through a cloth, reserving the starch that settles at the bottom of the water.
- 2 Mix the grated potatoes with buckwheat flour, settled starch, eggs, chopped scallions, and parsley.
- 3 Form into four firm balls; the balls will disintegrate immediately when added to boiling water while the potato is still wet.
- 4 Boil in simmering salted water for 25 minutes; the balls are almost cooked when they float to the surface.
- 5 Pan-fry the boiled meatballs with pork fat and shredded cabbage for 8 minutes until the outside is crispy.
