Bread dumplings

Light n' fluffy they ain't, but they're pretty tasty with a stew or roast. German stuff.

Soak some chopped-up stale bread with just enough hot milk to get it malleable. Fry up some onions in butter, then blitz them with whatever variety of herb you like (parsley is a favourite). Mix everything together into a sticky dough, adding breadcrumbs or flour to firm up. Shape into hefty dumplings. Boil in salted water until they float.
