Super quick cottage cheese dumplings

Ingredients:

(Makes 7–8 large dumplings)

  • 250 g cottage cheese (túró)
  • 1 small egg (or about ¾ of a large egg)
  • 50 g plain flour / all-purpose flour
  • 20–30 g almond flour
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 2–3 g semolina
  • Grated zest of 1 organic lemon
  • 1 tsp Date Delight spice blend

For Coating:

  • 40 g breadcrumbs or almond flour
  • 10 g flaked / sliced almonds
  • 1 tsp Date Delight spice blend
  • 20 ml almond oil

Instructions:

(Prep time: 30 minutes)

Mix the cottage cheese with the egg, salt, Date Delight spice blend, and lemon zest. Stir in the plain flour, almond flour, and semolina, then let the mixture rest for 10–15 minutes. With wet hands, shape the mixture into dumplings. Gently cook them in a pot of simmering, lightly salted water. Once they float to the surface, let them cook undisturbed for another 2–3 minutes. In a skillet, toast the breadcrumbs (or almond flour) and flaked almonds in almond oil with the Date Delight spice blend, then roll the cooked dumplings in the mixture to coat.
