As promised, here is the recipe for my boyfriend's grandma's cottage cheese pancakes. These were baked by the dozen, so we always had a plentiful amount for breakfast! My god, these are truly delightful - trust me. Spasiba, Babushka!
Ingredients
2 eggs
500g cottage cheese
2 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon self-raising flour
2 tablespoons sugar
Virgin Olive Oil
Raisins or filling of choice (optional)
Empty the cottage cheese into a large bowl and beat in the eggs. Sift the flour into the mixture and blend until the mix begins to harden. Add raisins or whatever else you'd prefer; raisins work well to sweeten the taste a bit. Heat the oil in a large pan whilst making small patties with the mixture; coat each with a bit of flour so they don't stick to the pan, and then add to the pan. Flip every couple of minutes until they appear golden brown. Best served whilst warm (otherwise I recommend microwaving!). This makes around 12 cottage cheese pancakes.
Please note: a language barrier has prevented me from retrieving the original recipe so this is a bit of a guess-and-make-do style recipe. Results weren't as great as Babushka's, but still tasty. A bit of trial and error is needed with the amounts of flour necessary as mine were too floury and not quite 'wet' enough! Even so, give it a go and I hope you enjoy as much as I do. :)
