Assemble the katmi: Roll out the dough thinly on a floured surface. Cut out circles using a glass or cookie cutter. Place a teaspoon of potato filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough in half to create a crescent shape, pressing the edges firmly to seal. Crimp with a fork if desired.

Boil the katmi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Carefully add the katmi in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes after they float to the surface, or until the dough is cooked through.
