In summer, we love salted dumplings with cottage cheese and herbs. But since there is always a lot to do in the summer, I usually cook lazy dumplings. I serve them cold with cucumber sauce. In the heat, a very light and at the same time satisfying dish.
The first time this dish was prepared completely by accident – I was preparing cream for the cake, there was a little mascarpone left, and I love cauliflower… Now this is one of my favorite recipes. Cabbage turns out to be creamy, with a wonderful crust, stunningly delicious!
The unique taste of food in a pot of black-flattened ceramic, cooked in the oven, makes me cook different dishes in it periodically. Today I will cook new potatoes with wild mushrooms and meat, stewed in a pot in mushroom broth under a flatbread.
The dish is very light, absolutely not greasy, simple and delicious. It’s a cross between chopped cutlets and meatballs, but it doesn’t taste like either. The taste is delicate and simple, without frills. A good option for every day for adherents of a healthy diet.
This dish my wife and I both dared in one sitting. Despite the garnish-it would seem, the same fat as the goose component. But surprisingly, the legs to which I added wings and a side dish of potatoes cooked in a classic French recipe – potato saladas, have left impressions fatty meals. I took the basic recipe from the famous chef Ilya Lazerson. The tradition of French peasant cuisine prescribes the use of duck legs as the main ingredient. So it is considered. In fact, confit is prepared not only from duck-chicken, goose, even lamb. Actually, confit is not a dish, but rather a way of cooking.
I often spoiled my family with lazy dumplings when I was on maternity leave: fast, affordable, everyone eats, and a hearty Breakfast. Part of the cottage cheese can be replaced with thick yogurt-it will be more tender. I found a variant in berry sauce on the German channel and decided to repeat it, we liked it. In summer, we prepare fresh berries, in winter-from freezing. On request, we offer sour cream, but we ate like this.
I suggest preparing a snack pancake pie with cottage cheese, dill and sun-dried tomatoes. It turns out very tasty both warm and cold. This cake will be a table decoration on weekdays and holidays.
