Tyrolean Speck Dumplings | Recipe by HANDL TYROL

speck

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: regular bacon

Turkey bacon reduces fat while still providing a smoky flavor.

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil offers a healthier fat option.

cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast adds flavor without dairy.

bread rolls

🥗Healthier: whole grain bread

💰Cheaper: stale bread

Stale bread is a cost-effective way to use leftovers.

Cut bread rolls into small cubes and let them dry overnight.

Chop speck and onion finely.

In a pan, sauté onion and speck in butter until golden brown.

In a bowl, combine bread cubes, sautéed mixture, and chopped parsley.

Add eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg to the mixture; stir until combined.

Gradually add flour until a dough forms.

Shape the dough into balls, about the size of a golf ball.

Bring broth to a boil in a large pot.

Gently drop the dumplings into the boiling broth.

Cook for 15-20 minutes until they float to the surface.

Remove dumplings with a slotted spoon and let drain.

Serve warm, optionally with melted butter and cheese on top.
