Semmelknoedel (Bread Dumplings)

Servings: 6

Ingredients
  

  • 10 Bread rolls (I like to use a mix of light and dark) 1 day old, diced
  • 500 ml Milk tepid
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Onion finely chopped
  • 1 bunch Parsley finely chopped
  • 2 Tbsp Oil
  • breadcrumbs, if needed

Method
 

  1. Add oil to a pan on medium heat and add the chopped onions. Let slowly brown, 15-20 minutes.
  2. Dice the bread rolls, put in a bowl and add tepid milk.
  3. Add the onions, chopped parsely and eggs to the soaked bread and knead to a dough. If the dough is too dry, add a bit of milk, if its too soft, add some bread crumbs.
  4. Use wet hands to form the round dumplings. If you don't cook them right away, add to a tupperware container and store until ready to cook.
  5. Add a pot with salted water on the stove and bring to a boil. Reduce to medium heat, add the dumplings and let simmer for 25 minutes. They are done when the dumplings rise to the top.
