Cheesecakes - this is a very tasty and healthy dish of cottage cheese. It should be noted that there are a great many recipes for the preparation of these delicious cakes. Cheesecakes (another name - cottage cheese) are prepared with various additives, not only sweet, but also savory. The methods for preparing this dish also differ; cottage cheese cakes can not only be fried in a pan, but also baked in the oven or microwave.
In the classic version of the preparation of this curd dessert, the list of ingredients includes flour. We offer a recipe for cottage cheese pancakes with semolina. Cottage cheese cooked according to this recipe has a special “airiness” and has a more delicate taste.
To prepare such cottage cheese pancakes, we need two packs (or half a kilogram) of cottage cheese (it is better to take fat cottage cheese, but you can also use fat-free). In addition, you will need to take an egg, one and a half tablespoons of semolina and sugar, which is better to add to taste, trying cottage cheese in the process of kneading the dough.
As you can see, the recipe for cottage cheese pancakes with semolina is quite simple, but you can supplement it by including vanillin or other aromatic additives or dried fruits in the list of products. If you decide to add raisins or dried apricots to the list of ingredients, then you need to wash them well and pour boiling water. After the water has cooled, strain the fruits and dry them on a napkin (dried apricots or prunes should be cut into smaller pieces). Before introducing dried fruits into the dough, they should be slightly “dusted” with flour.
So, how to cook cheesecakes? The first secret is that the cottage cheese must be wiped using a sieve. You can do it easier - beat the curd with a blender. The main thing is that it acquires a uniform consistency, without lumps. Add sugar to the curd, focusing on your taste.
Beat the eggs, pour them into the curd and add semolina. We thoroughly knead and let the dough stand for thirty minutes, so that the semolina swells. Then we make small flat cakes from the dough, roll them in flour. We fry syrniki in vegetable oil, turning on moderate heat. There are such cottage cheese better in the form of heat. You can serve them with jam or honey.
And here is the recipe for cottage cheese pancakes with semolina and bananas. Such a dish will surely appeal to children who, as a rule, love bananas. By the way, using this recipe, you can feed the cottage cheese with small picks who refuse to eat this healthy product in its natural form.
A pound of cottage cheese will require one ripe banana, an egg, half a cup of semolina, powdered sugar or sugar to taste. Knead a banana with a fork or mash it with a blender. Mix the fruit puree with cottage cheese, sugar, semolina and egg. Let the dough stand for half an hour, sculpt and bake cheese cakes, as usual.
In the same way, you can prepare dessert cottage cheese with other fruits by adding grated apple, pear or strawberry puree to the dough.
But all these are sweet versions of a dish of cottage cheese, and yet such cakes can be prepared for a snack. Here, for example, is a recipe for cottage cheese pancakes with semolina with the addition of greens and cheese.
A pound of cottage cheese will require one egg, a little salt, half a bag of baking powder, three tablespoons semolina, one hundred grams of cheese, fifty grams of butter and a bunch of greens (green onions, dill, parsley).
We wipe the cottage cheese, add beaten eggs, salt to taste, baking powder and semolina. Set the dough aside, and we ourselves will prepare the filling. To do this, grind greens and mix it with grated cheese. You can put a little mayonnaise or sour cream in the filling. Cut butter into small pieces.
Now we divide the curd dough into balls and begin to cook cottage cheese pancakes. We roll the ball into a cake and put in the center a spoonful of filling and a piece of butter. We connect the edges of the tortillas, forming a semblance of a filling pie. Blend cottage cheese pancakes in flour and fry with moderate heating in vegetable oil. Serving such an appetizer is better when hot so that the cheese inside does not have time to freeze.
