1 large potato, diced
1 cup chopped greens
3 shots Irish whiskey
Beef stock
4 eggs
1/2 cup chopped parsley
2 tablespoons fresh thyme
3 to 4 cups flour
Salt and pepper, to taste

Place vegetables and whiskey in stock pot and cover with beef stock. Cook until tender and liquid has evaporated. Place in food processor and puree. Cool to room temperature. Add eggs, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper and enough flour to make a batter. Bring about 4 cups beef stock to a boil and drop spoonfuls of dumpling mixture into the liquid. Simmer 10 to 12 minutes or until dumplings are done. Remove from broth to serve.
