Lazy dumplings with cottage cheese are a tasty and easy-to-prepare dish that is loved by both adults and children. They cook quickly and are less troublesome than classic dumplings. Therefore, the recipe will help out well when you need to quickly prepare a hearty hot breakfast, dinner or afternoon snack. Although here you need to knead the dough, roll it out with your hands and cook. But it is much easier to make pieces of dough with a high content of cottage cheese than to stick dumplings from dough with cottage cheese. The main thing is that the dumplings do not fall apart during cooking. Therefore, you should put flour in the dough in moderation. Although you do not need to overdo it with it, otherwise the taste of the dumplings will become less saturated, and the dough will be as tough as rubber.
It is also important for the recipe that the cottage cheese is homogeneous and mashed, the dumplings will fall apart from the granular product. A smooth, simple store-bought cottage cheese works well, and it is better to rub a homemade granular product through a sieve or beat with a blender. A delicate and light curd dish is usually served with chilled sour cream immediately after boiling. It is also delicious to serve with a scoop of vanilla, creamy or chocolate ice cream. This dish is perfect for baby and diet food.

Step by step cooking lazy dumplings, recipe with photo:
1. Put cottage cheese in a container for kneading dough. If it is very watery, remove the excess serum first. Otherwise, you will have to add more cottage cheese, from which the dumplings will not turn out especially tender. To do this, hang it in gauze or put it in a sieve so that the excess serum is glass.
2. Add flour, sugar, salt and eggs to the curd.
3. Knead the dough until smooth. It is most convenient to do this with your hands. You can also beat the products with a blender. Then the dumplings will be more uniform.
4. Flour the worktop and lay out the dough. Roll it out with your hands with a sausage about 3 cm in diameter.
5. Cut the sausage into 2 cm pieces.
6. Put water in a saucepan and boil. Dip the dumplings one at a time into boiling water and stir so that they do not stick to each other.
7. Boil lazy dumplings over a slightly over-medium heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 3-5 minutes. When they float to the surface, remove them with a slotted spoon so that the glasses have excess water and put them on a plate. Sprinkle with sugar and serve with sour cream.
