At first glance, it may seem that such a combination is unappetizing. However, a casserole or cheesecake made from cottage cheese and meat is a delicious and very satisfying dish.
To prepare casseroles or cheesecakes with meat, you will need the following products:
- cottage cheese: 300 grams;
- minced meat: 500 grams;
- any processed cheese: 150 grams;
- egg;
- salt and spices: to taste;
- onion: 1 piece;
- garlic: 1-2 cloves.
- dill and parsley greens: to taste.
You can use any minced meat: chicken, beef or mixed.
This recipe is quite simple to prepare. Cottage cheese should be thoroughly grinded, then mixed with processed cheese.
Drive an egg into the minced meat, add salt, spices, chopped onion and garlic pressed through a press (1 slice). Mix everything.
If you make a casserole option, you need to put the minced meat on a greased form, place the cottage cheese on top and bake in the oven until tender. For a golden crust, you can sprinkle the dish with grated cheese.
The portioned version of the dish is made in the form of cheesecakes, where minced meat is used instead of dough.
It is good to make a spicy sauce from sour cream for this dish. You just need to mix crushed garlic (1 wedge), chopped herbs and sour cream. For piquancy, you can add a little pickled cucumbers (pre-cut into small pieces) to the sauce.
Dishes made from cottage cheese and sour cream are not only useful, but also help to keep the figure. Low-fat options are especially good because they are low in calories.
