Here's how to make lazy vareniki, with photos. Start by pressing the cottage cheese through a sieve. I love homemade cottage cheese — it's fluffy and soft. Add the flour and crack in one egg, then mix everything together. Add a pinch of salt and mix again. Roll the dough into a long rope about 10 mm across. Cut it, as in the photo, into pieces about 1.5 centimeters wide. Set a pot of water on the stove. Once it boils, add a little salt and drop in the vareniki. Cook until they float to the surface — usually no more than 10 minutes. Serve drizzled with butter melted in a water bath, or with sour cream and sugar. They're also delicious with your favorite jam or preserves. Enjoy!
