Preparation

  • Finely dice the onion.
  • Melt the butter in a pan, add the diced onion and sauté until translucent.
  • Add the Gorgonzola and melt while stirring constantly.
  • Cut the hard cheese into small cubes (approx. 5 mm).
  • Place the LEIMER dumpling bread, onion and Gorgonzola mixture, diced hard cheese, salt, pepper, chopped chives, egg, and milk in a bowl, knead well, and let rest for approx. 20 minutes.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Knead the dumpling mixture well again (if the mixture is too firm, add a little milk; if it is too soft, add a little LEIMER breadcrumbs or flour). Form 6 dumplings (approx. 60 g each) from the dumpling mixture, place them in the hot water and leave to simmer for approx. 15 minutes (do not boil).
