Here’s how to prepare it:
Dumplings: Peel potatoes, boil in salted water, and press through a ricer into a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and quickly knead into a dough. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan with 1 pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Form dumplings and add them to the water. If they float to the top, they are cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon.
Sea buckthorn apple puree: Peel, quarter, core, and finely chop the apples. Bring all ingredients to a boil in a saucepan, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Puree, then season with sea buckthorn puree and sugar.
Hazelnut melt: Crush the nuts, melt them in a pan with butter and sugar, and add the dumplings.
Garnish: Mix the sea buckthorn with sugar. Cut the apple into thin slices, then cut out 8 rings (3 cm). Place 2 tablespoons of the puree on a plate, top with 2 dumplings, and serve with the hazelnut spread. Garnish with sea buckthorn berries, apple slices, and mint.
