My mom and my Oma would always make these potato balls for a special dinner.

I remember my Oma making the potato balls with beef Roladen and serving it on the
fine Rosenthal china in the dining room with the white linen table cloth at her
apartment. For me the most special was my birthday celebration as I got older. My mom

would make me duck and potato balls. My husband Ron has continued the tradition of
making the potato balls and has taught our sons, Todd and Drew to make them.
