"Lazy" dish of cottage cheese
This recipe will help you in cookingthe perfect breakfast for your child. Cottage cheese is a very nutritious and important product for a growing body, but not all children like it. And it is simply necessary to eat it. Therefore, to avoid quarrels and tantrums, make dumplings, pour melted honey or butter over them, and your baby will eat everything without any indignation. Ingredients:
- four tablespoons of flour
- 400 grams of homemade cottage cheese
- put sugar to your taste
- one egg
- a few teaspoons of flour (needed for padding)
Method of preparation:We offer the simplest recipe. You can make this dish in just ten minutes. So, to form homemade cottage cheese as well as possible, rub it through a sieve or use a regular meat grinder for this. In this case, the mass will be more homogeneous. But if you bought a store-bought product, and not homemade, then do not prepare it - it is already fine. Mix granulated sugar with cottage cheese and grind so that the sweet ingredient is not visible and does not crunch. Then add a chicken egg, then wheat flour and mix everything thoroughly. Pour a few spoons of flour into the resulting mixture. If you want the delicate taste of cottage cheese to prevail in the dish, then put as little flour as possible. However, know that in this case there is a high probability that the lazy ones will fall apart during cooking. After all, the more delicate the product, the worse it behaves in boiling water. When everything is ready, divide the dough into several parts and put them on the kitchen table, which you should sprinkle with flour beforehand. Now roll each portion into a not too thick sausage and cut into pieces about one and a half centimeters long. Stretch the dough a little with your hands, thus forming “coins” and make a shallow dent in them with your finger. This way the products will be able to hold the gravy. Boil water, lightly salt it and put the dumplings in. Cook on low heat, and when they float to the surface, wait another two minutes and take them out with a slotted spoon. If you have your own tried and tested recipe for sweet sauce, you can use it to make the gravy. We suggest pouring sour cream over the dish. We hope your child will be pleased!
