Boil potatoes until tender, about 20 minutes.

Drain and let cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes until smooth and allow to cool completely.

Mix mashed potatoes with flour, egg, and salt until a dough forms.

Chop onion and sauté in butter until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Combine sautéed onion with ground pork and season with black pepper and nutmeg.

Form a ball of dough, flatten it, and place a spoonful of the filling in the center.

Fold the dough over the filling and seal it tightly to form a dumpling.

Repeat with remaining dough and filling.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Carefully drop dumplings into boiling water and cook until they float, about 5-7 minutes.

Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and serve hot, garnished with parsley.
