7 secrets of perfect cheesecakes

• The success of the dish largely depends on the curd. It should be fresh, of good quality and with a uniform texture. If you still have grains, grind them through a sieve or beat with a blender. Cottage cheese should not be very soft (or, as many say, wet), otherwise it will be difficult for you to sculpt and cook cheese cakes.
• Do not add too much sugar, otherwise the pancakes may burn. If they don't seem sweet enough, serve them with honey, condensed milk, syrup, or jam. By the way, in this case, you can do without sugar altogether.
• Nuts, dried fruits, coconut, cinnamon, vanillin, citrus zest will help to diversify the taste and aroma of ordinary cheese cakes. Add them to your liking, but don't overdo it.
• The dough should be quite thick so that balls can easily be molded from it. It's okay if it sticks a little to your hands: just cover your palms with water, vegetable oil, or flour. But if, despite the first advice, you took soft cottage cheese and the dough turned out to be thin, add a little flour or semolina. Only carefully, otherwise the cheesecakes will become rubbery and not so tasty.
• To form the cheesecakes, scoop about 1 tablespoon of the prepared dough and transfer to your hand. Roll the dough into balls and flatten them. As a rule, cheesecakes are doused in a small amount of flour or semolina before frying - this way they do not stick to the pan. Curd balls can be flattened directly in flour. If you have a non-stick skillet or are just sure that the pancakes will cook without any problems, skip this step.

There is another way of molding: sprinkle flour on the table, put all the dough there and roll into a sausage. Then cut it into equal washers, give them the desired shape and, if necessary, roll in flour.

Preheat a skillet and grease it with oil. It is not necessary to lubricate non-stick cookware. Put the cheese cakes there in one layer. If there are many, cook in batches. Fry for 3-4 minutes over medium heat, until the bottom of the curd cakes is covered with a golden crust. Then turn them over, reduce heat slightly and cook about the same amount

Cheesecakes can be baked in the oven. Place them on a baking sheet lined with silicone mat or quality parchment paper. Bake at 180 ° C for about 15 minutes. Then gently turn the cheesecakes and cook for another 10 minutes
