Merged: Polish potato dumplings (sinkers)

My grandfather used to make potato dumplings he called sinkers. He would use potatoes, flour, baking powder, salted water, but would make them softball size when boiling, cut them into smaller pieces and then fry them in lard. Is there a recipe with exact amounts on the ingredients, or do you just guess at the consistency before putting into the water?
