Add the farmer’s cheese, flour, and salt to a mixing bowl, and crack the beaten egg over the top. Knead and roll the mixture with your hands until you have a compact dough.

Cover a chopping board, wooden board, or hard surface with a generous amount of flour, and place your ball of dough on the surface. Use a knife to cut the dough in half.

Roll the two halves into long rope-like shapes. Once rolled, press slightly on the top to flatten the dough slightly. Cut your rolls of dough evenly into individual chunks.

Bring a pot of water to a boil, and then add your dumplings to the water.

Let them cook for about 10 min. The dumplings will rise to the surface of the water. Drain the dumplings, and transfer them on a plate, ready to be served hot.

Serve them with butter and sour cream or jam.
