Kopytka

(Kapytki, Little Hooves)

Kopytka are small potato dumplings from Poland that are similar in taste and appearance to the Italian gnocchi. They are made with boiled and mashed potatoes with the addition of flour. The name of the dish can be translated to little hooves, referring to the shape of the dumplings.


It is said that the best kopytka should be light, soft, and fluffy in texture. Kopytka are usually consumed as the main course, topped with buttered breadcrumbs or a mushroom sauce, but they can also be served as a side dish combined with lard, pork, and fried onions.
