Cooking method

Cooking time: 25 min

Step 1:

Make the batter. Put 300 g of cottage cheese in a deep bowl, add 2 tbsp semolina, 2 tbsp sugar, 0.5 tsp vanilla, 0.5 tsp baking soda, salt to taste, and 1 egg, and stir until smooth. If the cottage cheese is coarse-grained, you can press it through a sieve first or blend it with an immersion blender (much faster). I recommend using cottage cheese with at least 9% fat for this recipe.
Step 2:

To let the mixture come together into a cohesive dough, let it rest for 20 minutes, then evenly stir in 3 tablespoons of flour and mix well.
Step 3:

Once you've mixed the cheese mixture thoroughly, let it rest for another 20 minutes.
Step 4:

Shape balls of the size you want and roll them in flour.
Step 5:

Heat 4 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet and shape the syrniki into flattened rounds.
Step 6:

Place the syrniki in the hot skillet.
Step 7:

Fry on both sides until golden. Take the finished syrniki off the skillet and fry the next batch, adding a little more oil and heating it well beforehand if needed.
Step 8:

Cook tasty, cook simple, and make the most tender syrniki at home together! Serve them with sour cream, condensed milk, jam, or preserves. Enjoy, everyone!

I imagine plenty of people know how to fry fluffy, incredibly tender syrniki with semolina, but I'm also sure it never hurts to revisit this easy recipe. This method gives syrniki with an unbeatable flavor! Fluffy, tender, and simple to make — delicious and very quick! The cheese dough isn't the least bit fussy, and it always turns out well. Even someone who isn't a big fan of cottage cheese won't be able to resist these fragrant, amazing syrniki. Sometimes I add raisins to the dough, sometimes I make the syrniki sweeter or saltier. In short, feel free to improvise!
