For the bread dumplings, toast 3 diced bread rolls and add some chopped parsley. Soak 2 whole rolls in milk and squeeze out, add to the toasted bread cubes.
Mix in fat, eggs, breadcrumbs and salt. Allow the mixture to set a little, form dumplings with wet hands and cook in gently boiling salted water for about 10 minutes.
Melt 2-3 tablespoons of butter in an ovenproof bowl, stir in enough breadcrumbs to form a loose mass, turn the well-drained dumplings in it.
