Homemade grated pie with cottage cheese is an incredibly tasty and, if I may say so, cozy delicacy.
As the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova , explained, the basis of this pie is shortcrust pastry, which is covered with a layer of the most delicate curd filling. This culinary masterpiece is completed by a crispy crust, which is crumbs from the same shortcrust pastry, grated on a grater.
And here is the list of necessary ingredients. For the dough you will need:
- 100 g butter,
- 60 g sour cream,
- 1 egg, 50 g sugar,
- 280 g flour,
- 1 teaspoon baking powder,
- 1 pinch of salt.
For the filling, stock up on the following products:
- 300 g cottage cheese,
- 120 g sour cream,
- 75 g sugar.
Cut the softened butter into cubes and grind them with sugar, then beat in the egg, add sour cream and stir until a more or less homogeneous mass is obtained.
After this, add flour mixed with salt and baking powder and knead the dough, which will be divided into 2 parts. Put one third in the freezer and the remaining two in the refrigerator.
While the dough is chilling, prepare the filling, achieving a soft curd cream by mixing all the ingredients using a blender or food processor.
Now you can turn on the oven to 180 degrees and start assembling the pie. Put most of the dough in a parchment-lined form, then pour in the filling, and grate the dough from the freezer on top.
The pie is baked for about 35 minutes. Enjoy!
