- 1/8 qt. milk
- 10-5/8 oz. flour
- Bacon
- Salt, black pepper, sugar, cumin
- sour cabbage
- 1 onion

- You should begin by peeling the potatoes and grating them into a bowl.
- Then add some salt, milk and flour to make a mixture, which is neither too thick nor too thin.
- After that, form the mixture into little dumplings, throwing them straight into a pot of boiling, salty water.
- After the dumplings have been cooked for about 10 minutes, they rise to the top of the water.
- At this point take the pot off the hob, and drain the water away.The stewed cabbage is prepared in a separate pot.
- Pour oil into the pot, and then add a diced onion, together with 1 spoonful of sugar and let this mixture caramelize.
- After that add a pinch of cumin, a pinch of ground black pepper, half a dozen juniper berries, and a 2lbs of sour cabbage.
- Let this stew for about half an hour, and add water if required.
- Finally, mix the stewed, sour cabbage in with the dumplings, and then serve with fried bacon, cut into small pieces, on top.
- Of course, Halusky s kaputou is best served with some fresh bread and a glass of Slovak beer!
