Yield Makes 12 pancakes, serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 egg yolks
2 cups (1 pound) tvorog or farmer's cheese, homemade or store-bought
Scant 1⁄2 cup sugar
3⁄4 cup flour
1⁄2 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch of salt
A tablespoon or two of heavy cream (optional)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Sour cream, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks into the farmer's cheese, then stir in the sugar. Mix together 1⁄2 cup of the flour, the baking powder, and the salt and add to the cheese mixture. If the mixture seems dry, add a little heavy cream.
  • Place the butter and oil over medium-low heat in a large nonstick skillet and melt the butter.
  • Sprinkle the remaining 1⁄4 cup flour onto a plate and dust your hands with some flour, too. With your hands or a spoon, scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the batter and set the mound on the floured plate. Use your hands to gently shape it into a round patty about 2 inches in diameter and coat it lightly on all sides with flour. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  • Carefully transfer the patties to the pan and cook them slowly until the undersides are browned, about 3 minutes. Turn with a spatula and cook until the other sides are browned, 3 to 4 minutes more. Serve immediately, with sour cream.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality farmer's cheese. This will ensure that your syrniki are rich and flavorful. If you can't find farmer's cheese, you can substitute ricotta cheese or cottage cheese.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the syrniki tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and the batter to thicken slightly.
  • Cook the syrniki over medium heat. This will prevent them from burning. Cook until they are golden brown on both sides.
  • Serve the syrniki with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include sour cream, fruit preserves, honey, and maple syrup.

Conclusion:

Syrniki are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect syrniki every time.
