Cook spinach in boiling water until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Drain spinach and cool, then chop finely.

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat and sauté chopped onion and garlic until translucent, about 5 minutes.

In a large bowl, combine stale bread rolls, eggs, flour, sautéed onion and garlic, chopped spinach, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.

Mix until well combined and form into small dumplings, about the size of a golf ball.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Gently drop dumplings into boiling water and cook until they float to the surface, about 10-12 minutes.

Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and set aside to drain.

In a separate pan, melt additional butter and toss cooked dumplings to coat.

Serve dumplings garnished with grated parmesan and chopped parsley.
