Ricotta dumplings

Hungarians eat a lot of cottage cheese. They call it Túró. They use it in savoury food, but more often in sweet desserts like strudels, cakes etc.

I had guests coming over. In Macedonia it is customary for guests to call to visit, and actually come over the same day. I think that should be the case always, for what you miss - you crave. So, I made a quick dessert, and a very tasty one: Cottage cheese dumplings or Ricotta dumplings or as the Hungarians call it - Túró.

Ricotta dumplings

Ingredients:

  • 120g. semolina
  • 500ml milk
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 500 гр. изварка или рикота

 

Topping: 
  • 100g melted butter
  • 200g breadcrumbs
  • Brown sugar

Preparation:

Boil the semolina in the milk, if desired sweeten it with sugar, and stir like a pudding until it thickens. Leave it to cool. Add unsalted cottage cheese or ricotta. Mix everything together with 1 vanilla and form dumplings-balls (the size is optional). For the topping, fry the butter with breadcrumbs and add 2 tablespoons of brown sugar. The dumplings are rolled in breadcrumbs and served with whipped sour cream or homemade jam!
