he national dish of Austria based on a simple mountainous tradition which then spread throughout the country and central Europe is Knödel.

They can be stuffed with liver, sliced "speck" ham or prunes.

- 3 eggs - 1/4 liter of milk - 1 small cup of chopped

nutmeg - salt and pepper.

Melt butter in a bowl, work in bread crumbs, flour, eggs, milk, parsley, ham and nutmeg until the mixture is properly mixed and pasty. Make a small ball and cook in boiling water (not in broth as it will not stay smooth). Drain after 5' and if the consistency is as required, make other 5-6cm in diameter balls. Cook in slightly boiling water for 15-20'. Drain with a perforated ladle and serve dry as a side dish with warm sauerkraut or in meat broth as a soup.
