Silesian potato dumplings, small and round with a thumb-hole indent in the centre that catches the gravy. The signature carbohydrate of the region, served beside rolada śląska or any roast.
Kluski śląskie date from Silesia's potato-cultivation roll-out in the 18th and 19th centuries. The thumb-hole indent is the test of a Silesian cook: it gives the dumpling a thinner centre that cooks evenly while holding gravy. The dish travelled across the Silesian diaspora and is now sold pre-made across Poland, though Wrocław's restaurant versions stay closest to the original hand-shaped form.
