Instructions

1. For the dumpling, cut the onion into fine cubes and sauté in oil for a few minutes until translucent. Remove the pan from the heat and let the onions cool. Mash the potato with a fork, squeeze the garlic or chop it very finely.
2. Add the potatoes, garlic, egg, marjoram, soy sauce, remaining spices and the onion cubes, which have cooled down in the meantime, to the meat and mix everything together well. Shape the meat mixture into 8 balls and roll each one in flour.
3. Peel the carrots and cut into large cubes. Bring 400 ml of water (or unsalted vegetable stock) to the boil in a saucepan, add meatballs, carrots and bay leaf, season with about a level teaspoon each of salt, pepper, paprika powder and sugar and reduce the heat so that the stock is just at the boiling point and no longer bubbles. Cover and simmer for about 20 minutes.
4. Remove the dumplings with a ladle and set aside. Discard the bay leaf.
5. In a small bowl, whisk 50 ml of cold water with the cream and flour. Stir until all the flour lumps have dissolved. Add some of the hot broth and keep stirring. Finally add the tomato paste and stir well again until no more lumps can be seen. Add this creamy mass to the hot broth and stir in immediately. Finely chop the dill (alternatively parsley) and add to the sauce. The
6. Add dumplings to the finished sauce and briefly bring the sauce to the boil again.
7. You can also leave out the dill or - if you like - sprinkle it directly on the plate. The sauce tastes very tasty even without herbs.
8. Homemade mashed potatoes or boiled potatoes tossed in butter go well with it.
