Wash the chicken and divide into portions. Pour over the chicken 5 l water and cook. Add peeled soup vegetables, bay leaf, English pepper, grainy black pepper and simmer for ca. 3 hours. Strain and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss in the broth peas and pieces of chicken meat. Cook for a while.
Cut Kaiser rolls into cubes and pour milk over. Leave to soak. Whisk eggs with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Chop the onions and fry them in butter. Finely chopped parsley combine with defrosted and chopped spinach. Squeeze the milk out from rolls and mix with everything.
