  3. Add fresh chopped tomatoes, chicken stock, and fresh basil. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
  4. Mix the dumpling ingredients in a bowl to form a stiff mixture, then shape into small balls and set aside.

  7. Ladle soup into bowls, topping each with two dumplings. Serve hot.
