To make the dumplings, cut the bread into small pieces and place in a bowl.
Finely dice the fennel bulb, onion and garlic cloves. Heat a little olive oil and sauté the onion, garlic and fennel in it. Season with a little salt and pepper. Add the mixture to the bread cubes.
Heat the milk and add to the bread mixture. Stir in the eggs, freshly grated cheese, freshly chopped herbs and lemon zest. Flavour again. Leave the mixture to stand for 10-15 minutes.
Heat a little oil or butter in a pan. Shape the mixture into round patties and place in the pan. Fry over a medium heat for 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
For the soup, finely dice the leek and garlic. Heat a little oil in a pan. Sauté the leek and garlic.
Peel and finely dice the potato. Cut the broccoli (with the stalk) into small pieces, as well as the fennel. Add everything to the pan and sauté briefly. Season with salt and pepper.
Pour in water or vegetable stock so that the vegetables are covered. Cover and simmer gently for about 10 minutes.
Add the peas, spinach leaves and whipping cream and blend or puree to a fine cream soup. Depending on the consistency, add a little vegetable stock or milk. Flavour with lemon juice, salt and pepper.
