Cooking

Step 1

Season the minced meat with salt and pepper to taste, mix. Coarsely chop 1/3 spinach leaves and add to minced meat. Mix thoroughly again. Roll out the dough into a thin layer, cut into rectangles about 5x3 cm. Put the minced meat, but not to the brim. Lubricate the edges with water, roll the dumpling like a flat roll and sizzle the edges.

Step 2

Prepare the sauce. Finely chop the onion, cut the mushrooms into strips and fry together with the onion in vegetable oil. Add some water and simmer until the liquid has evaporated. Add cream and simmer until thickened. Season with salt to taste.

Step 3

Prepare a spinach platter. Cut the fennel into strips and lightly fry in a pan until golden brown. Add remaining spinach leaves and salt, sauté lightly, 30 seconds.

Step 4

Boil dumplings. Put spinach in the center of a deep plate, mushroom sauce in a circle, dumplings on top. Garnish with herbs and a slice of tomato, if desired.
