Lavas Rolls with Cottage Cheese and Raisins
6 servings
40 minutes
A recipe for those who usually have a lumpy first and second pancake. Thin lavash will be a good substitute for delicate pancake dough if you generously grease the rolls with beaten egg before baking: in the oven , the lavash will soften, become covered with a golden crust and almost lose its tough bread essence. Another life hack is to add a little semolina to the curd filling. This will not affect the taste at all, but you will be absolutely sure that the cottage cheese thickened with semolina will not leak out of the roll at the most crucial moment.
1
Drain the cottage cheese in a sieve and let it dry, especially if it's too wet. Place the cottage cheese in a bowl, add sugar (40 g), salt, vanilla sugar, 2 eggs, and a pinch of salt.

Blend the mixture in a blender until smooth and creamy.

Place a couple of spoons of cottage cheese on one edge of the lavash and roll it into a tube, tucking in the sides to prevent the filling from leaking.
