There is an opinion that syrniki are not a Lenten dish, since Christians exclude cottage cheese from their diet during this time.
It really depends on what you're making it from. It'll work if you use tofu instead of cottage cheese.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to make tofu syrniki.
You will need:
- tofu - 120 g;
- rice flour - 1 tbsp;
- lemon juice - 2 tbsp;
- a pinch of salt;
- sugar syrup - 2 tbsp;
- raisins to taste;
- vegetable oil.
How to cook
The process is not much different from making cheesecakes.
1. Rinse the raisins and cover them with hot water.
2. Mash the tofu with a fork, add the ingredients one by one, mixing until smooth.
3. Lastly, add raisins, mix, form cheesecakes with wet hands, bread in flour or semolina and fry in vegetable oil. Enjoy!
