  • bowl
  • Sieve
  • pan
  • garlic press
  • Chopping board
  • sharp knife
  • cooking pot with a capacity of approx. 5 liters

Zutaten

  • 150 g beef liver ~5.3 oz
  • 100 g bread cubes or 2 stale bread rolls ~1 cup
  • 100 g breadcrumbs ~¾ cups
  • 100 g brown onion ~1 cup
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 4 tablespoon parsley chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fat traditionally beef kidney fat was used, but I use regular canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon fine-grained salt ½ to 1 level teaspoon maximum, no more, otherwise it will be too salty
  • ½ teaspoon finely ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram

Anleitung

  • Cut the beef liver into even, small pieces and place in a blender jug.

  • Place the bread cubes in a bowl and cover with water. Leave to infuse for a few minutes. Then strain through a sieve and press out well. As little water as possible should end up in the liver dumpling mixture.

  • Peel, halve and dice the onion. Heat the fat in a pan and fry the onion over a medium heat until translucent. Add the finely chopped parsley to the pan and fry for a few seconds. Remove the pan from the heat.

  • Transfer to a bowl. Mix in the breadcrumbs until a firmer dumpling mixture is formed. Depending on how well the breadcrumbs have been squeezed out, you may need a little less or more than the 100 g breadcrumbs specified.

  • Using a tablespoon, cut out equal-sized pieces from the mixture and form dumplings of the desired size.

  • In the meantime, bring water or soup to the boil in a large pan. Place all of the dumplings in the boiling water at the same time if possible.

  • Depending on the size, simmer gently for approx. 10-20 minutes. My dumplings in the recipe were approx. 4 cm (1.5 inches) in diameter and were ready after 10 minutes of cooking.
