Cherry and Strawberry Dumplings
Description
These sweet dumplings can be served not only with berries but also with sour cream, jam, or simply sprinkled with sugar. This dish serves as both a hearty main course and a sweet dessert. Such dumplings are especially appealing to children, who sometimes can't be persuaded to eat traditional potato or cottage cheese dumplings.
