Grate the potatoes.

Add salt and water to the grated potatoes.

Stir in flour gradually to create a medium-soft dough.

Bring a large pot of water to a boil, adding salt.

Drop spoonfuls of the potato dough into the boiling water.

Cook the dumplings for several minutes until they float and are cooked through.

Drain the cooked dumplings slightly.

Return the drained dumplings to the pot.

In a separate frying pan, saute chopped onion in butter until golden brown.

Pour the sauteed onion and butter mixture over the potato dumplings.

Let the dumplings simmer with the onion mixture for a few minutes.

Optionally, top with fried and crumbled bacon instead of onion.
