Preparation steps

Place quark and cottage cheese in a fine sieve and let drain over a bowl.

Rinse chives, shake dry and slice into rings. Finely chop pumpkin seeds.

Mix together the quark, cottage cheese, chives, egg, pumpkin seeds and semolina in a bowl. Season dough lightly with salt.

Meanwhile, rinse the zucchini and coarsely grate.

Peel the onion and garlic and chop finely.

Heat the oil in a skillet over low heat. Sauté the onion, garlic and zucchini until softened, about 10 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix together 60 ml (approximately 4 tablespoons) water with the sour cream and stir into the zucchini mixture. Season with salt and freshly grated nutmeg.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Using 2 tablespoons, form the dough into ovals and submerge in the water.

Reduce heat and simmer over low heat until dumplings float to the surface, about 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and serve with the zucchini sauce.
