1 Onion, finely chopped

DIRECTIONS:
Soak the rolls in lukewarm milk. Saute the onion and parsley in butter,
then add onion mixture - along with the other ingredients - to the

If the mixture is too loose, add a bit of plain breadcrumbs.

steep for 25 minutes. Transfer to clear beef broth and serve. Serves 4.
