Cottage cheese casserole with sour cream and semolina in the oven

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   How to make cottage cheese casserole with sour cream and semolina in the oven? Prepare your food. Cottage cheese is the main ingredient of the dish, so choose the highest quality and natural product, without milk fat substitutes. It is better if the cottage cheese is soft, not grainy. The fat content of cottage cheese can be any, mine is 9%.

2. STEP 2

   

   Place the cottage cheese in a bowl and beat in the eggs. Be sure to wash your eggs before using them, as even seemingly clean shells can harbor harmful bacteria. It is best to use food grade detergents and a brush. Add sugar, semolina, a pinch of salt and vanilla at the tip of a knife. You can reduce or, conversely, increase the amount of sugar, depending on your taste preferences. Add sour cream.

3. STEP 3

   

   Mix all ingredients well until smooth. I had soft cottage cheese, so a hand whisk was enough. If the cottage cheese is drier or grainy, then beat everything with an immersion blender - the casserole will turn out more tender. Leave the mixture to stand for an hour - this is a prerequisite for obtaining a tasty and fluffy casserole.

4. STEP 4

   

   After the allotted time, take a suitable mold and grease it with a piece of butter. There is no need to lubricate the silicone mold. The narrower the shape, the higher the casserole will turn out. I have a round one, 18 cm in diameter.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour the curd mixture into the mold and smooth the top.

6. STEP 6

   

   Place the casserole dish in the oven, preheated to 180°C. Bake it for 40 minutes to 1 hour. The exact time will depend on the size of the pan and the features of your oven. Focus on the appearance of your casserole - it should brown. Remove the finished casserole from the oven. It will fall off a little, that's normal.

7. STEP 7

   

   Serve the casserole warm or cooled; it’s good either way. Sour cream, berries, jam, honey, and condensed milk go well with the casserole. Bon appetit!

This is simply the most delicious casserole! The recipe is simply perfect. The only thing I separated the whites from the yolks and beat them separately to get a more delicate texture. Tender, it just melts in your mouth, and most importantly you can smell the cottage cheese. I don’t have a round pan and I baked it in a rectangular one, but I don’t think it affected the taste. Thanks to the author!

Wonderful casserole. Quick and easy to prepare in any oven. I used low-fat cottage cheese and 20% sour cream. I poured condensed milk onto the finished casserole and the taste intensified.

I’ll say right away that I haven’t tried the casserole myself because of the sugar, but my family really liked it. I liked its consistency, which is more like a cheesecake than a casserole. All ingredients were mixed with a blender. I took a risk and immediately cooked for my husband’s parents without any preparation. Everything worked out. We decorated it with coconut shavings, it turned out tastier and more beautiful (according to my husband).

I made a pie using this recipe for the first time. I just added candied fruits to it. But this amount of sugar is not enough for me. Sprinkled powdered sugar on top.
