The recipe for cheesecakes with carrots and cottage cheese in a frying pan came in handy when I needed to add some cottage cheese (about 250 g) and leftover carrots left over from preparing vegetable dishes (the carrots had already been coarsely grated and the quantity was less than indicated in the recipe). I didn't add vanilla. Stew the carrots and mix them with the curd mixture. When I added semolina, the resulting dough seemed watery to me, and I left it on the table for about 20 minutes. During this time, the semolina absorbed moisture, swelled, the dough became soft, plastic (it looked the same as in the author’s photo in step 7), and did not stick to wet, cold hands. The cheesecakes turned out wonderful! It’s very tasty with sour cream and condensed milk, or you could sprinkle it with powdered sugar. Nice recipe, thanks!
