Lori Cheese CasseroleRussian cuisine | Main courses

Casserole with Lori cheese is a cozy dish of Russian cuisine that harmoniously combines tender potatoes, fresh mini-zucchini, and aromatic Lori cheese. This cheese, known for its soft creamy notes, perfectly complements the taste of vegetables, while the addition of khmeli-suneli adds spiciness to the casserole.
