Verenika - the ultimate comfort food.
There are two ways it's prepared, in one large dumpling with ham gravy, or several small dumpligs w/gravy. I prefer the large. It's basically a hot cottage cheese dumpling.
Make a basic dough, except substitute powdered milk, about a third cup for flour, add baking powder, 2 eggs, 1/3 water, slat to taste, roll it out.
Mix a small container of cottage cheese with two eggs, pepper, place it in the dough, and wrap it up. You can either boil it or bake it. I prefer baking. About 25 minutes at 450.
Ham gravy - you know, some ham, some flour, some milk.
