Rinse the millet 2-3 times with hot water. Pour into a saucepan with 250 ml of cold water and place on the stovetop over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, add salt, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and cook for 20 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes.
In a bowl, mix cottage cheese with sugar, vanilla sugar, and a pinch of salt. Add the eggs.
