Ingredients
- 4 stale bread rolls, cut into small cubes
- 1 cup milk, warmed
- 3 tbsp butter
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 pinch ground nutmeg
- 1.5 tsp salt
- 10 oz button mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
How to cook it
- Pour the warm milk over the bread cubes in a large bowl and let them soak for 10 minutes, until softened.
- Melt 1 tbsp of the butter in a skillet, cook half the onion until soft, then stir it into the soaked bread along with the parsley, flour, nutmeg, and 1 tsp of the salt until the mixture holds together.
- Shape the mixture into 8 firm dumplings, then lower them into a large pot of gently simmering salted water and cook for 20 minutes, until firm and cooked through.
- Meanwhile, melt the remaining butter in a saucepan, cook the remaining onion until soft, then add the mushrooms and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, until golden.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and simmer for 5 minutes, then stir in the cream and the remaining salt and pepper and simmer for 3 minutes more, until slightly thickened.
- Lift the dumplings out with a slotted spoon, plate them, and spoon the mushroom cream sauce generously over the top.
