Grind the almonds, grate the cheese, mix together with the pepper and paprika powder.
Beat the egg white with 2 pinches of salt until firm, stir a third into the almond and cheese mixture, then carefully fold in the rest.
Shape dumplings with two teaspoons and place on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake at 175 ° C (fan oven) for 13-15 minutes until golden brown.
The mixture can also be used as a soup (e.g. for clear vegetable soups): Prepare dumplings as above and add to boiling salted water or broth. Let it simmer gently for 7 - 8 minutes.
