Round discs of curd mass, sprinkled with powdered sugar or combined with strawberry jam... This breakfast will make anyone's mouth water!

Did you know that syrniki will be even tastier if you replace traditional wheat flour with rice flour?

So, to prepare especially delicious syrniki you will need:

  • 300 g of cottage cheese with 9% fat content,
  • 2 tablespoons rice flour,
  • 1 egg,
  • 1-1.5 tablespoons of sugar,
  • Oil for frying,
  • A pinch of salt.

Important: the cottage cheese should not be too wet. Before combining it with the other ingredients, it is recommended to beat the cottage cheese with a blender.

Now add the egg, flour, sugar and salt and thoroughly mix the resulting curd mass for modeling.

Rice flour will also be needed for breading. Pour it onto a wide plate and smooth it out over its surface.

Using a tablespoon, place the curd balls on a plate, sprinkle them with flour and roll them, then cover them with a glass that is slightly larger than the future cheesecake and roll the cheesecake with a glass using rotational movements - it will take on a perfectly round shape.

All that remains is to heat the oil in a frying pan and fry over a low-medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
