Prättigauer Chnödli
Prättigau Chnödli are meatballs served in a cream sauce. They taste particularly good with mashed potatoes and vegetables as a side dish.

Makes approx. 20 Chnödli

Ingredients

  • 600 g minced meat (beef or pork)
  • 1 slice of bread, soaked and mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • Salt, ground pepper, marjoram
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove of garlic, crushed
  • 1 bunch of parsley, finely chopped
  • 3–4 dl thickened gravy
  • 2 tbsp flour

Preparation

  1. Mix all the ingredients, form small Chnödli (balls) with a little oil and brown them on all sides.
  2. Toast a little flour for the sauce and bring to the boil with the gravy.
  3. Then add the Chnödli and let them simmer for about 30 minutes.

Our Tips

  • Season the Chnödli mixture well before forming the balls.
  • The gravy can also be homemade: To do this, deglaze the flour, which has been roasted in the pan drippings, with 1 dl of white wine and bring to the boil. Add 2 dl of stock and 1 dl of cream, and season with salt and pepper.
