How to Make Delicious and Tender Cottage Cheese Pancakes
Every homemaker has their own way of making pancakes. Today, we will share a special recipe with you. It will come in handy when there’s practically nothing left in the fridge, and your loved ones suddenly crave pancakes!
INGREDIENTS
- 4-5 tbsp semolina
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 400g cottage cheese
- vegetable oil
- salt
If you like, you can add candied fruit, raisins, or finely chopped dates to the batter. Each family has its own culinary traditions and variations on how to make delicious cottage cheese pancakes with semolina.
INSTRUCTIONS
Mix cottage cheese, sugar, and semolina. Remember, if the cottage cheese is too liquid, you can add more semolina. If it is lumpy and dry, you can add a little milk, water, or kefir. Let the batter rest for a while.
Knead the dough and try to make it sticky and fluffy.
Now comes the easy part. Form small balls from the dough and lightly coat them with flour. The size of the balls depends on how big you like your pancakes. If you’re making them for your little one, try to make them smaller.
Flatten the balls with your hand to form pancake-like disks.
Heat a frying pan and pour oil into it. Reduce the heat to medium and start frying the pancakes.
These pancakes go very well with jam, condensed milk, or sour cream. It’s the perfect breakfast for the whole family. Leftover pancakes from breakfast can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated in the evening, although many prefer to eat them cold.
Cottage cheese pancakes can also be a good snack at work, especially if you make them savory with herbs. However, if you’re open to trying new and unusual variations of traditional dishes, you can make pancakes without frying.
