Canederli knödel dumpling

Roughly break up the bread into small pieces. Mix egg and milk. Add to bread, stir and mix well. Leave to rest at room temperature for 2 hours. Mix every now and again

Chop onion, fry gently in oil, add speck. Leave to cool. After the 2 hours, add speck to bread which should have absorbed the egg and milk. Mix very well and leave for 20 mins. Meanwhile bring stock to the boil

Shape into balls, dust with a little flour. Cook in the stock until they rise to the surface. Serve in the broth with bread to mop it all up :)
