Ingredients

  • 500 g bread rolls
  • 200 ml milk
  • 1 onion
  • a handful of parsley
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt
  • Pepper (freshly ground)
  • Nutmeg (freshly grated)
  • 2 Eggs
  • bread crumbs (as needed)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Place the bread rolls in a large bowl. Bring the milk to a boil and pour it over the bread, letting it soak for about 15 minutes.

  2. 2.

    While the bread soaks, peel and finely dice the onion. Rinse the parsley, shake dry, pluck the leaves, and chop finely. Sauté the onions in hot butter in a small pot until translucent, then remove from heat and stir in the parsley. Add this mixture to the soaked bread. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Beat in the eggs and knead everything together by hand. If needed, add a little more bread crumbs to make the dough workable.

  3. 3.

    Fill a large pot with salted water and bring it to a boil. Wet your hands and form dumplings from the dough. Once all dumplings are shaped, carefully drop them into the bubbling water and reduce heat. Simmer for about 20 minutes until all dumplings rise to the surface and turn. Gently stir the pot if they stick together, then lift with a slotted spoon and serve.
