It seems that what can wash is more difficult than making cheese pancakes, but so often you can hear that the cheese pancakes did not work out - they fell apart or rubber, and there are still many different options. Oddly enough, many simply do not know how to cook cheese cakes, even if the hostess easily copes with more complex recipes. Before we start cooking, we will analyze the most common mistakes in cooking:
- Cottage cheese is different. As strange as it may be, crumbly and moist cottage cheese is not suitable for making cheese cakes. Give preference to dry and dense curd.
- Sugar is bad. Cheesecakes are best cooked with a little sugar, and even better with powdered sugar. If the cheese cakes do not seem sweet, then sweeten the finished products with jam, condensed milk or syrup.
- The amount of flour plays an important role. The more flour, the more hammered the dough comes out and as a result you will get "rubber cheesecakes". The curd dough should stick to your hands, since a minimum of flour is added to it, but in order to form curd cakes, they are simply rolled in flour, and the excess is crushed.
- Sunflower oil is a guarantee of ruddy cheese cakes. Yes, this particular oil is ideal for frying. Olive can also be taken, but only odorless. But butter will only spoil your work - the cheesecakes will fall apart and burn.

Grind the cottage cheese through a sieve before cooking. Why do this as a finished product, you ask. And then, so that the cheesecakes are homogeneous without lumps. It takes literally five minutes to grind half a kilo of cottage cheese through a sieve. Don't neglect this step.
Add an egg or two yolks, sugar, semolina and 2 tbsp to the cottage cheese. l. flour.
Grind the mass with a fork. Leave for 10 minutes for the semolina to swell. Then the cheesecakes will be easier to shape.
Pour the remaining flour on the table, take a part of the curd mass with our hands and roll it into a sausage on a floured surface.
Take a knife, sprinkle it with flour and cut the sausage into washers.
Dip each washer in flour on both sides and give a round shape, slightly pressing them down.
We heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and only after that we spread the cheese cakes. We fry the cheesecake on each side until a delicious crust. We immediately remove them on a dish.
Serve ready-made cheesecakes with sour cream or sweet jam. As a snack or dessert. Cold and warm - they will run out very quickly, and you will only have to sigh that such wonderful cheesecakes have not been cooked enough.
