Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make semolina cottage cheese casserole in the oven? First, fill the semolina with milk. Be sure to stir everything and forget about this mass for half an hour.

Step 2

Step 2
While the semolina is swelling, we need to soften the butter. It is better to do this naturally, i.e. in the kitchen, on the table, placing it on a saucer in advance.

Step 3

Step 3
In order not to waste time, letʼs continue — break the eggs into a plate and, adding sugar, beat. But don’t overdo it — we don’t need foam at all.

Step 4

Step 4
Next, pass the cottage cheese through a sieve, meat grinder or blender, and then add the butter, the egg-sugar mixture, semolina with milk, as well as salt and vanillin.

Step 5

Step 5
You can mix this mass with a fork, a whisk, or any other method that is more appropriate for you. It is important that the mass acquires a paste-like state.

Step 6

Step 6
I love dried apricots in casseroles, so I chopped them finely. There was no need to soak it, because... it was fresh and soft. If you donʼt want dried apricots, add raisins after soaking them in hot water. Add dried apricots (or raisins) and knead the mixture again.

Step 7

Step 7
All we have to do is turn on the oven and set it to 180 degrees. While it is heating, grease the pan (bottom and sides) with oil. You can sprinkle with breading or semolina, and place the dough in a prepared pan. Remember that the thickness of the casserole should be 3-4 cm. Smooth its surface with a spatula and brush with sour cream. If desired, top with berries.

Step 8

Step 8
All we have to do is send the form to the heated oven. Bake for 35-40-50 minutes — depends on the oven. I took the casserole out of the oven when the top was golden. But remove from the mold after 20 minutes.
