Cook step by step

Cook Mode shows one step at a time, with ingredients and timers close at hand.

01
Mix the base
Mix the tvorog, eggs and sugar with a fork or in a food processor fitted with a dough attachment.
02
Add the flour and starch
Combine the flour and tapioca starch and mix into the base. The dough should stay sticky — do not add extra flour to firm it up.
03
Rest the dough
Cover the bowl loosely and leave for 15–20 minutes.
04
Shape a log
Dust the surface and dough with flour. Gently roll into a log without kneading the dusting flour into the dough.
05
Roll the dumplings
TipTo freeze, arrange uncooked dumplings separately on a tray. Once frozen, transfer to a zip bag and return to the freezer.
Cut into small pieces. Coat the cut sides in flour and gently roll each piece between your palms into a ball.
06
Boil the dumplings
Add the dumplings to boiling water in small batches. Gently run a skimmer over the bottom so they do not stick. Cook until the dumplings float to the surface, then lift out with a skimmer. Cook frozen dumplings the same way: add directly to boiling water without thawing.
