Start with 2 beaten eggs, then add the following ingredients: 1/2 tsp. baking powder and enough flour to make a rather stiff dough. Mix well and cut off little pieces into salted boiling water. Boil for about 15 minutes. Drain them and put them into a frying pan along with some butter, cold cooked potatoes and onions. When this mixture is almost cooked add: little bread cubes that have been browned in some butter in another frying pan.
My aunt Rachel (my father's sister) used to make them and I remember them with fondness, for they were the one meal that my father would make for us also.
