Working time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

Cut the rolls into cubes, bring the milk (about 1/8 liter) to a boil, pour over the rolls, and let stand (about 30 minutes). In the meantime, fry the bacon over low heat, sauté the finely chopped onion in it until translucent, and let cool. Pour the bacon and onion mixture over the soaked rolls, add an egg, flour, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix everything well with a wooden spoon. Use a pot with a perforated insert, add water to the bottom, and bring to a boil. Using wet hands, form dumplings, press together firmly, and place them in the perforated insert. Steam for about 30 minutes; they are guaranteed not to fall apart, even if the dumplings are a bit too moist. Goes well with roasts and plenty of sauce.
