Forcemeat Balls For Soup

1 Tbs butter
1 small onion
1-1/2 cup bread, without crusts
1 egg
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
Dash of nutmeg
1 Tbs chopped parsley
1/2 cup sausage meat

Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the onion finely chopped. Fry for several minutes over the fire.

Soak the bread in water until thoroughly softened and then squeeze out all the water.

Mix with the bread the egg, salt, pepper, nutmeg, parsley, and meat, and to this add also the butter and fried onion.

Form small balls of this mixture and sauté them in shallow fat, fry them in deep fat, or, after brushing them over with fat, bake them in the oven.

Place a few in each serving of soup.
