Soak toast in cold water. Peel and dice the onion. Knead minced meat, onion, squeezed toast, eggs, salt and pepper. Form eight dumplings from the minced mass.

Wash and clean the cucumbers and peel them as desired so that some skin remains on them. Halve the cucumbers lengthwise and remove the seeds with a tablespoon. Cut the cucumbers crosswise into slices one centimetre thick.
3
Peel, halve and roughly dice the vegetable onion. Heat the fat. Sauté the vegetable onion in it. Add the cucumbers, cover and steam over a mild heat for 10 to 15 minutes. Let the meatballs simmer in boiling salted water for ten minutes.
4
Wash and halve the tomatoes. Wash parsley, dab dry and chop finely. Measure 200 millilitres of the dumpling water and add to the vegetables with the cream. Bring to the boil and thicken with sauce thickener.

Heat the tomatoes and parsley in it. Season with salt and pepper. Remove the dumplings with a skimmer and serve with the vegetables. Boiled potatoes taste good with it.
