Cube the potatos ½" after peeling them. Jullienne the carrot, and chop the onion. Bring the water to a slow boil and add the potatos & carrot, salt, and cook for 6 minutes. Mix the flour, 1 tablespoon of butter, and enough of the butter to make a stiff dough. Pinch off pieces of the dough and roll into ½" ball and drop into the slow boiling soup. Saute the onion in the remaining butter until they start to brown. Add the milk & onions to the soup and cook for 5 more minutes. Origin: Oksanna Levshenko, Kiev-Ukraine, circa 1996
