Cut the meet into 3/8" cubes.

In the meantime clean the vegetables, halve and slice the carrots and the parsnip, cut the potatoes into cubes slightly larger than the meat. Add the vegetables to the cooked meat, cover with approximatley 1 and 1/4 quarts of water. Over high heat bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until done. Spice to taste, garnish with the chopped parsley. For the little pinched dumplings mix the egg and the flour to make a hard dough, salt to taste. Pinch off small, pea-size pieces, drop them in the soup and boil for 2-3 minutes.
