Sirniki (Russian Cheese Pancakes)
These Russian Fried Cheese Pancakes (Patties), prounounced SEER-ni-kee, are delicious served hot out of the pan – the outsides still crispy, the insides creamy… They are very easy, and the dough can be made ahead. Sirniki are usually served as a brunch or breakfast dish, or as a dessert, with sour cream or jam. Some like both!
1 lb farmer cheese
2 eggs
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup flour, plus
extra flour, for dipping
2 tablespoons butter, approx
sour cream or jam, for serving
3-4 servings
1. In a food processor, pulse the farmer’s cheese until it is uniformly crumpled. Add the eggs, sugar, salt, and ½ cup of flour. Pulse or mix to combine. Refrigerate 1 hour, or even overnight. The dough will remain thick but sticky.
2. Put approximately 1/3 cup of flour into a bowl, and use this to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands. Using 2 teaspoons, drop 1½” balls of dough into the flour, roll them round, and flatten to about 3/8” thick. Place them on a plate in a single layer until all the patties are all formed.
3. Heat a frying pan with 1 T. butter, and fry the patties on each side until golden. You will need to add more butter as you go.
4. Serve hot with sour cream and/or jam. This recipe will make approximately 20 small patties.
5. NOTE: Farmer Cheese is usually found near the cream cheese; my store sells Friendship brand. These days, the packages are just under 1/2 pound (don't you hate this incremental downsizing?), and 2 packages will work fine.
6. About the Times, Prep time is mostly frying time, and Passive time is the chilling time.

As I even have elderly I even have found out to love cabbage in all varieties. Stir-fried, with rice and greens. super source of fiber additionally. this is outstanding with fried rice and Dungeoness Crab. Sandwiches too.
