Lazy Cottage Cheese Dumplings with Strawberry Sauce

Combine the cottage cheese with the egg, sugar, and salt, mixing well. Add the flour and knead into a soft dough that holds its shape nicely.

Form small balls and shape them into dumplings using a fork.

Boil the dumplings in salted water for 1 minute after they float to the top. Then pan-fry them in butter until golden brown.

For the sauce, rinse the strawberries, remove the stems, and chop the berries. Add sugar and lemon juice, and place over low heat until the sugar dissolves.

Dilute the starch in water. Once the strawberries come to a boil, pour in the starch while stirring constantly, and cook for a few minutes until thickened.
