How to make a delicious desert

Plum Dumplings:

300 gr. potatoes + a pinch of salt boiled and mashed
1 egg
100 gr. flour
1/4 Kg. plums (small italian plums work best)
50 gr. butter
50 gr. grits + walnut mixed and fried in the butter until golden brown

Mix the potatoes with the egg and the flour. Make sure the dough is not too soft, not too hard.
Take a walnut size ball of dough and make it flat with the palms of your hands. Wrap it around a plum, and dust it with some more flour so it doesn't stick. Finish all the plums first, and then go to the next step.
Boil some water with a pinch of salt and turn on medium heat. Add the dumplings one by one and let them cook for about 10-15min.
Take them out of the pot one by one and dust them with the grits and walnut that you previously fried.

Enjoy.
