Cheesecakes for vacation, gamblers for breakfast: an unusual classic, a recipe for our grandmothers

Among the variants of such dishes, gambits with cherry sauce stands out. This recipe became famous thanks to one of the most popular food bloggers on social media.

What you need:

Cottage cheese – 300 grams
Yolk – 1 pc.
Sugar – 50-60 grams
Salt – a pinch
Flour – 30 grams
Semolina – 30 grams
Breadcrumbs – 100 grams
Sugar (for rolling) – 50 grams

For the cherry sauce:

Cherries – 200 grams
Sugar – 20 grams
Corn starch – 10 grams
Water – 45 ml
Lemon juice – 1 tablespoon

Step-by-step instructions:

Combine cottage cheese, egg yolk, sugar, salt, flour, and semolina in a deep bowl.

Leave the dough to stand for 15 minutes. Form balls, place the filling in the middle, and then shape them into balls again. Boil the balls in salted boiling water for 3-4 minutes after they float.

Now, fry the breadcrumbs, cool them, and mix them with sugar. Roll the finished cheese balls in this mixture. To make the sauce, combine the cherries, sugar, lemon juice, and starch dissolved in water. Cook until it thickens, stirring constantly.

Cooking the sauce is unnecessary – sour cream is an excellent addition to the dish. Earlier, we shared a recipe for stuffed eggplant kebabs, a perfect suggestion for a spring picnic.
