Fluffy Pork-and-Cottage-Cheese Patties
Wildly delicious patties for your favorite people! Appetizing and so simple! A neighbor at the cabin where I once vacationed shared this recipe with me. This dish is easy to make even with the barest of kitchen equipment, so she made them almost daily — there are no fancy ingredients in it. When I tasted the patties, I was simply amazed by their remarkable flavor and asked her to share the recipe. Now these pork-and-cottage-cheese patties are a regular on my dinner table. Sometimes there are even leftovers for supper — rarely, but it happens.
Cooking method
-
Step 1:
Gather the ingredients.
-
Step 2:
First I make the filling: I grind the pork together with the low-fat cottage cheese in a meat grinder.
-
Step 3:
I shape the mixture into small round patties. Then I whisk the egg with about 15 grams of butter and coat the patties in this mixture.
-
Step 4:
Fry them in the remaining butter until done.
-
Step 5:
Serve hot with any side dish.
- What can I say — these pork-and-cottage-cheese patties are amazing food, incredibly tender and practically melting in your mouth. I can't always wait until they reach the table; I grab them straight from the platter and eat them alongside little pickled tomatoes. It makes for a slightly rough-and-ready meal, but no less delicious for it — and best of all, there are no extra dishes to wash, and I'm no great fan of scrubbing dirty plates. For these wonderful patties I try to choose tender, young pork without excess fat, membranes, or sinew. After all, this is a recipe that won't tolerate tough cuts.
