  1. Here’s the translated recipe:

    **Ingredients:**

    * 5 kg grated potatoes
    * 2 tablespoons salt
    * 250 g boiled and mashed potatoes
    * 450 g diced pork
    * 50 g chopped onion
    * 1 tablespoon ground allspice
    * 1 teaspoon salt

    **Step 1:** Dice the salted pork, chop the onion, and grind the allspice. Mix these ingredients thoroughly with the salt, being careful not to crush the pork. Ideally, prepare this mixture a day in advance.

    **Step 2:** Peel the potatoes and grate them using a fine grater. Squeeze out as much liquid as you can using a kitchen towel until you have a dry dough. Mix the grated potatoes with the boiled, mashed potatoes and salt. Combine thoroughly until you get an even dough.

    **Step 3:** Roll the potato dough into balls and flatten them slightly. Place the pork mixture in the center and roll up so that the pork is encased in the middle of the potato dough.

    **Step 4:** Before adding the *kroppkakor* (potato dumplings) to the water, make sure it is boiling. Place the *kroppkakor* in the boiling water and cook until they float to the surface. Then, let them simmer over low heat for 55-60 minutes, stirring gently from time to time.

    **Step 5:** Serve with butter, lingonberries, and cream. (or in my case, bacon!)
