The rice and spinach dumplings contain plenty of cauliflower. The vegetable contains a considerable amount of vitamin C and thus strengthens the immune system. Thanks to the Parmesan and the ricotta, the dumplings score not only with protein, but also with bone-strengthening calcium.

As for the cheese, you can simply use your favorite variety - whether Pecorino, Gouda or Emmental - what tastes good is allowed!

4.

Mix well rice, cauliflower, pureed spinach, Parmesan, onion, egg, breadcrumbs, ricotta and 1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Twist off 14-18 dumplings from the rice mixture by hand. Fry the dumplings evenly on all sides in a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of butter.
