Simple Halušky (Czech Flour Dumplings)
You can shape the halušky with a knife, a spoon or a special halušky maker, depending on your experience and equipment. Drop them into boiling salted water. Once cooked, toss them with fat straight away so they don't stick together.

Method
01.
Mix both flours with the water and turmeric. Add the water gradually; just under a cup is enough. The dough should be soft – neither thick nor thin.
02.
Bring a larger amount of water to the boil and salt it well. Press the dough through a halušky maker directly into the boiling water.
03.
Once the halušky float to the surface, let them boil briefly and drain them. Toss them immediately with lard or rendered bacon fat.
04.
Serve them with cabbage, bryndza and bacon, or as a side dish with sauces and goulash.
