Boil potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

Drain potatoes and let cool slightly before peeling.

Mash the potatoes in a large bowl until smooth.

Add flour, eggs, salt, and pepper to the mashed potatoes and mix until combined.

Chop onions and sauté in butter until translucent, about 5 minutes.

Fold sautéed onions into the potato mixture along with parsley and nutmeg.

Shape the mixture into small dumplings or patties.

Bring broth to a simmer in a large pot.

Carefully add the dumplings to the simmering broth and cook for 10-12 minutes until they float.

Remove dumplings and place them on a baking sheet.

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Top dumplings with cheese and bake until golden, about 15 minutes.

Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley.
