Yield: 4 Servings

10 60 70

Ingredients

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 pork steaks (1/2 inch thick)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 medium onions, thinly sliced
1 cup water
2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
DUMPLINGS:
4 quarts water
1 package (12 ounces) frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
2 eggs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried parsley flakes
2-1/4 teaspoons salt
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

Combine flour and salt; coat pork. Set remaining flour mixture aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown pork in oil for 8 minutes per side. Remove pork and set aside. Saute onions in pan drippings for 2 minutes. Stir in reserved flour mixture. Gradually stir in water, bouillon and paprika; bring to a boil. Return pork to skillet. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 45 minutes or until pork is tender.
Meanwhile, for dumplings, bring water to a boil in a large kettle.
In a large bowl, combine hash browns, eggs, parsley and salt. Stir in flour and baking powder until mixture forms a soft dough. Turn dough onto a floured surface. With floured hands, shape dough into 1-3/4-in. balls; gently drop into boiling water. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-18 minutes or until dumplings are tender but firm. Remove with a slotted spoon to a serving platter.
Remove pork to the platter; cover and keep warm. Stir sour cream into pan juices; heat through but do not boil. Pour over dumplings and pork. Yield: 4 servings.
