4 cups shredded raw potatoes
2 cups cold boiled potatoes ground or mashed

1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper

2 cups oatmeal
2 cups unbleached flour

Potato Dumpling Batter
Fill water into a large pot and bring it to a soft boil. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Fill a glass of cold water for dipping your spoon into between forming each dumpling. Form a round ball by using a tablespoon and your hand.
Potetball Cooking in the potPlace the dumpling carefully into the softly boiling water. When they are all in the water, simmer for 30-35 minutes. Carefully stir the bottom with a long wooden spoon to prevent them from sticking to the bottom.
You will notice I call them both raspeball and raspaball, in some areas they call it just ball, all three ways are correct depending on where you are in Norway.
Norsk Potetball tastes great with beef, pork or lamb roasts, ham, sausage, or boiled dinners.
