Vegan “cottage cheese” Dumplings instructions
Rinse & drain the previously overnight soaked millet, and begin to cook with the soy milk, salt, sugar/maple syrup, vanilla in a bigger stockpot (add the sultanas as well if being used).
Stirring sometimes, on low heat cook the millet till somewhat mushy..
Turn the heat off, and stir in the plant-based yoghurt or soured cream. It’s not necessary, though gives the cottage cheese alike texture..
Add the semolina as well, resting with lid on for 10 minutes..
In the meantime, brown the breadcrumbs on coconut oil, adding the cinnamon and maybe some sugar..
Remove the lid from the millet paste and let fully cool down, adding then the lemon zest and juice and forming golf ball sized dumplings..
Serve with powdered sugar, vegan soured cream, but tastes awesome with various fruit jams also..
My favorite way to use it is on bread though with lots of fresh herbs. I didn't use nearly as much fresh herbs in these pictures as I actually. I always used to love cottage cheese and I only just found a good vegan alternative. Most vegan recipes use silken tofu, but I much prefer this version with regular firm tofu and unsweetened soy yogurt. It is has exactly the right texture and a lovely slightly savory, salty and sour flavor.
