Curd is a unique fermented dairy product. This ingredient is able to strengthen the immune system, repopulate the intestines with beneficial bacteria, cure migraine, etc.
Curd is especially valued in India. Buddhists believe that cottage cheese is Krishna’s favorite product. That is, the deity constantly eats cottage cheese, so he is saturated with wisdom and knowledge.
For this reason, at festivals in honor of Krishna, Hindus break a pot of cottage cheese at the altar.
We will use this product more rationally, so we will make tender and puffy buns from cottage cheese
.
Ingredients for curd buns:
- cottage cheese – 250 g;
- powdered sugar – 50 g;
- eggs – 2 pcs;
- butter – 50 g;
- sugar – 100 g;
- leavening agent – 2 tsp;
- salt – ⅓ tsp;
- flour – 320 g;
- vegetable oil – 40 ml.
Preparation of cottage cheese buns:
In a bowl with cottage cheese, break eggs, pour salt and granulated sugar. Pour vegetable oil into the mixture and mix until homogeneous.
Flour is combined with baking powder, sift into the cottage cheese mixture
.
Leave 20 grams for sprinkling on the table. Knead the homogeneous dough first in a bowl, then on the table.
Roll out the dough into a rectangular layer 3 mm thick. Brush the surface of the dough with warm butter and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Roll the dough into a roll and cut into equal portions.
Place the buns on a
baking
tray lined with parchment
, smear the surface with egg yolk, bake at 180 degrees for about 20-25 minutes.
The secret of cottage cheese buns is that they remain lush and soft even the day after baking.
After cooking, we recommend re-sprinkling the tops with powdered sugar.
