Syrniki without flour and semolina
Description
Delicious pastries for the whole family. If you want the syrniki to be smooth and without cottage cheese lumps inside, blend the mixture with an immersion blender. Adjust the amount of sugar to your taste, but it is still better to serve them with homemade jam or honey than to increase the amount of sugar in the recipe. They can be served with tea or coffee.

Step 5
Slightly moisten your hands with water, take a small amount of the curd mixture, shape the syrniki to the desired size, and fry them in a minimal amount of vegetable oil for about 2 minutes on each side. Syrniki should always be fried over low heat so that the crust turns golden brown.
