Ingredients
Knodel Dough:--
6 rolls 2-3 day old, cut into 1 cm cubes
6 strips bacon
1 large onion, diced
½ cup milk hot, but not boiling
4 large eggs, lightly beaten
4 tbsp butter, melted
½ cup parsley, chopped
1-2 cups bread crumbs optional
SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
Beef Water:--
4 cups beef stock
4 cups water
½ tsp SIDS HOT WORCESTER SAUCE
Directions
BREAD: Cut stale bread rolls into cubes and add to a large mixing bowl.
ONIONS + BACON: Sauté bacon and onions in a large frypan.
MILK: Use a medium saucepan to heat the milk. Don't boil! Set aside.
MELTED BUTTER: Melt butter and add parsley, SIDS SALT & PEPPER.
Making The Dumpling Dough
In a large bowl combine the bread, bacon and onions, seasoned melted butter, warm milk, and eggs. Use a wooden spoon and combine into a dough. TIP: The consistency of the dough should be sticky. If the dough isn't thick enough, add plain bread crumbs.
Rest the dough for 15 minutes.
Wet your hands and shape dumplings. Make them into balls about 5 cm in diameter.
Boiling The Dumplings
In a large, wide pot simmer SIDS HOT WORCESTER SAUCE, beef stock and water until hot, but not boiling. Use a slotted spoon to place the dumplings into the simmering beef water.
Cook over medium heat until the dumplings rise to the top. About 15-20 minutes.
