- - one egg;
- - ½ teaspoon of quenched soda;

- - vegetable refined oil (for frying).
Instructions
Step 1
The first step is to beat one chicken egg with sugar and salt (if desired, you can add lemon zest, vanillin or any other additives to the egg mixture). It is best to beat in a deep bowl, since in the future it is here that all other products need to be added.
Step 2
Next, you need to put cottage cheese and soda in a bowl, mix everything well until a homogeneous mass is formed. It should be noted that for the preparation of curd cheese balls, it is best to use crumbly fresh curd, in this case they turn out to be more fluffy.
Step 3
The next step is adding flour. Pour the flour into the dish gradually, stirring everything well each time so that no lumps form. The curd dough should eventually turn out to be moderately thick, about like thick sour cream.
Step 4
Next, you need to put a saucepan on the fire, pour vegetable oil into it. As soon as the oil boils, you need to grease your hands with oil, carefully take a small piece of dough and roll it into a ball no larger than a walnut. Immediately put it in a saucepan in boiling oil. Make the rest of the cheese balls in the same way and fry them until cooked.
Step 5
Immediately after frying, the cheese balls must be laid out on a paper towel so that it absorbs excess fat. After cooling completely, the balls can be sprinkled with powdered sugar and served.
