Sirniki Russian Cheese Pancakes

    I am also Russian - so I am used to Sirniki and these turned out perfect. I didn't refrigerate them, due to the lack of time. used super dry Tvorog and it turned perfect! I think super dry one works really well in this recipe! Next time I will add a photo - we ate them so fast, that I didn't have time to take a photo :)

    Sirniki (Russian Cheese Pancakes),These Russian Fried Cheese Pancakes (Patties), prounounced SEER-ni-kee, are delicious served hot out of the pan, the outsides still crispy, the insides creamy… They are very easy, and the dough can be made ahead. Sirniki are usually served as a brunch or breakfast dish, or as a dessert, with sour cream or jam. Some like both!,I am also Russian – so I am used to Sirniki and these turned out perfect. I didn’t refrigerate them, due to the lack of time. used super dry Tvorog and it turned perfect! I think super dry one works really well in this recipe! Next time I will add a photo – we ate them so fast, that I didn’t have time to take a photo :),SO good – this recipe is a keeper (and that really says something since i’m russian & grew up eating this)! i took away a star because i made a couple of adjustments & it was perfect that way. Adjustments: use half the sugar & salt! next time, i’ll also try to skip dredging in flour before frying OR using 1/3 cup flour instead of 1/2 cup… just to try & limit the “not so good” ingredients in this. served w/ strawberries & raspberries (these don’t need sour cream, though my fam always eats em that way) and tea = YUM!

    Steps

    1
    Done

    In a Food Processor, Pulse the Farmers Cheese Until It Is Uniformly Crumpled. Add the Eggs, Sugar, Salt, and Cup of Flour. Pulse or Mix to Combine. Refrigerate 1 Hour, or Even Overnight. the Dough Will Remain Thick but Sticky.

    2
    Done

    Put Approximately 1/3 Cup of Flour Into a Bowl, and Use This to Prevent the Dough from Sticking to Your Hands. Using 2 Teaspoons, Drop 1 Balls of Dough Into the Flour, Roll Them Round, and Flatten to About 3/8 Thick. Place Them on a Plate in a Single Layer Until All the Patties Are All Formed.

    3
    Done

    Heat a Frying Pan With 1 T. Butter, and Fry the Patties on Each Side Until Golden. You Will Need to Add More Butter as You Go.

    4
    Done

    Serve Hot With Sour Cream and/or Jam. This Recipe Will Make Approximately 20 Small Patties.

    5
    Done

    Note: Farmer Cheese Is Usually Found Near the Cream Cheese; My Store Sells Friendship Brand. These Days, the Packages Are Just Under 1/2 Pound (don't You Hate This Incremental Downsizing?), and 2 Packages Will Work Fine.

    6
    Done

    About the Times, Prep Time Is Mostly Frying Time, and Passive Time Is the Chilling Time.
