Instructions

1
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with a whisk, then add the cottage cheese, spelt semolina, salt and lemon zest. Mix all the ingredients well into a homogeneous mixture.
2
Let the mixture rest for at least 15–20 minutes at room temperature. This is essential for the semolina to swell so the dumplings don't fall apart during cooking.
3
Bring water to a boil in a larger pot and lightly salt it. Using two spoons dipped in the boiling water, shape the dumplings and carefully place them into the boiling water.
4
Reduce the heat so the water is only gently simmering. Cook the dumplings for about 5–7 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
5
While the dumplings are cooking, heat the forest berries with water, honey and cinnamon in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes until the fruit breaks down and a thick sauce forms.
6
Remove the cooked dumplings from the water with a slotted spoon, drain them well and serve on a plate topped with the hot fruit sauce.
