Secrets of making lazy dumplings

• Choose only the "right" cottage cheese - slightly dry, but never sour. If the cottage cheese turns out to be moist, it is advisable to squeeze it out so that less flour is needed during the cooking process.
• Control the amount of flour. Regardless of the recipe, the amount of flour should always be controlled. You should add it gradually because if you overdo it, the dumplings will be hard to chew.
• Do not overcook. Just 1-2 minutes after boiling and the dumplings will be fully cooked.
