Syrniki

Mixing the Batter In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until well combined.

Heating the Skillet Heat vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.

Shaping the Syrniki Take a small handful of the cottage cheese mixture and shape it into a small pancake, about 1/2 inch thick.

Cooking the Syrniki Place the shaped syrniki in the hot skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.

Draining the Syrniki Remove the cooked syrniki from the skillet and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.

Serving the Syrniki Serve the syrniki hot with sour cream, jam or honey, and garnish with fresh berries.
