Spinach Dumplings - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 cup parmesan cheese
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
8 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup butter

Preparation

Thaw and squeeze spinach to remove most of the moisture.
Add 2 tbsp butter to medium hot pan and toss onions and spinach together until thoroughly warm and quite dry.
Transfer to bowl and add ricotta first, stir together. (this cools the spinach and prevents the eggs from cooking when added).
Add eggs, parmesan, and flour.
Spoon 3/4\" balls from the mix and roll in flour to coat.
Heat the chicken broth to boil, then simmer.
Add dumplings to broth and cook 10-12 minutes. (make sure the broth does not boil as this could undo the dumplings).
Serve dumplings in a bowl with melted butter and a dusting of Parmesan cheese.
