Cottage Cheese Pudding with Nuts
Ingredients
- Cottage cheese 20 oz
- Sugar ½ cup
- Chicken Egg 1 piece
- Breadcrumbs 4 tablespoons
- Chopped almonds 0 oz
- Raisins 5 oz
- Orange zest to taste
- Butter 3 tablespoons
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Sift the crushed breadcrumbs through a sieve.
Step 2
Finely chop the nuts (or almonds, blanched in boiling water and peeled), roast in the oven until light brown, and grind in a mortar with 2 tablespoons of sugar.
Step 3
Remove the raisins from the stems and rinse them in warm water.
Step 4
To the strained cottage cheese, add sugar, 3 tablespoons of melted butter, egg yolks, ½ teaspoon of salt, lemon zest, and beat thoroughly with a wooden spatula. Then mix the cottage cheese mixture with the crushed breadcrumbs, nuts, raisins, and finally fold in the whipped egg whites.
Step 5
Grease the pudding mold with butter, sprinkle with sugar, and fill with the cottage cheese mixture. Fill the mold to ¾ full, cover with a lid, and place in a larger pot with water (the water should reach only halfway up the mold). Place thick paper or double-layered cheesecloth at the bottom of the pot. Cover the pot with a lid and cook the pudding for about an hour, adding a little water as it evaporates.
Step 6
An even firmness of the risen cottage cheese mixture that slightly pulls away from the edges is a sign that the pudding is ready. Carefully unmold the pudding onto a plate and serve hot with fruit syrup or sour cream.
