Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 Lb Potatoes -- Cooked, Rice Or Mash
1/4 Tsp Pepper
1 Tsp Salt
Pinch Nutmeg -- *Note
1 Tsp Dried Basil
1/4 C Egg Beaters® 99% Egg Substitute -- Or Equiv To 1 Egg
2 Tbsp Melted Butter
1 C Flour -- **Note
2 C Flour

*NOTE: The original recipe called for using the nutmeg...I omitted it and
used basil.

**NOTE: The directions said to add more flour as needed. The dough will
not extrude if it doesn't have enough flour and the potatoes kept absorbing
flour so we kept adding and adding to a total of 2 additional cups.

Put potatoes, pepper, salt, basil and flour in mixing bin and mix for one
minute. Slowly add butter.

Add additional flour 1 T at a time to keep the dough extruding. Cut into 1
inch pieces.

Because this is a thicker pasta (dumplings), it will take longer to cook.
Cook i n6 qts of boiling water. Test for firmness (about 5 minutes).

Using instant potatoes:
1 Cup flour
1 Cup Instant Mashed potatoes
1 Tbsp salt
1 Egg
2 Tbsp melted butter or oil

Mix dry ingredients in machine. Add egg, butter and hot water or hot milk
to fill batch line to dry ingredients. May need to add more hot liquid 1
tsp at a time depending on humidity.

If necessary, return the first few inches extruded back into the mixing bin
until the pasta is coing our fairly smooth.

It turned out quite good especially with the addition of the basil.
