  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to make cottage cheese balls fried in oil? Prepare your ingredients. Cottage cheese is suitable for any fat content, the main thing is that it is natural and tasty, without vegetable additives. Use refined, odorless oil for deep frying.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve or beat with a blender. Don't skip this step - with crushed cottage cheese the dough will be more homogeneous.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Beat the egg with sugar until fluffy and light. 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.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Add egg beaten with sugar, vanillin, soda and salt to the cottage cheese. Mix everything well.

  5. STEP 5

    STEP 5

    Sift the flour and add it to the curd mass. By sifting, the flour will be saturated with oxygen, which will make the balls more fluffy.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Knead into a sticky dough. There is no need to try to add more flour to remove stickiness, otherwise the finished dish will turn out dense and gummy. Therefore, the amount of flour stated in the recipe is approximate. It may take more or less, look at the consistency of the dough.

  7. STEP 7

    STEP 7

    On a floured dough board, roll out small sausages and cut each into equal pieces weighing about 20g each.

  8. STEP 8

    STEP 8

    Roll each piece into small even balls.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 9

    Heat vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat.

  10. STEP 10

    STEP 10

    Place the curd balls in small portions and fry them, turning them over, until golden brown. During frying, the curd balls increase in size by 2-3 times, so you should not throw a lot of them at once.

  11. STEP 11

    STEP 11

    Using a slotted spoon, transfer the finished balls to a plate with a paper napkin to absorb excess fat.

  12. STEP 12

    STEP 12

    Cool the curd balls slightly and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve. Bon appetit!

I've been wanting to make cottage cheese balls for a long time. It was always confusing that this, let’s say, is not a very healthy dish. But I was sure that it would be very tasty))) I had the right amount of cottage cheese, and I decided to make it. Preparing curd balls is not difficult and very quick. I tried not to add flour, since I had already seen my mistakes more than once on ready-made dishes into which I transferred flour. But, as they say, you learn from your mistakes))) I was a little confused about soda, so I didn’t take soda. I also fried the balls in a small saucepan, which is very convenient. Not much oil was used. The curd balls turned out very tasty, so soft and aromatic. The only thing is, since I didn’t add soda, my balls didn’t increase in volume like the author’s, and they didn’t turn out as round. But it didn’t affect the taste. Thank you very much for responding to my comment and making changes to the recipe regarding the soda. I'll definitely make it again! Maria, thank you so much for the delicious and easy recipe! Here are my balls
