Curd cutlets with herbs

4 servings

100 minutes

Cottage cheese cutlets with herbs are a delicate and aromatic dish of European cuisine, perfect for a light dinner or nutritious breakfast. Historically, such cottage cheese cutlets appeared in rural homes where ingredients were used to their maximum benefit. Cottage cheese gives the cutlets softness, while semolina helps maintain their structure. Added spices create a pleasant sharpness, and the golden crust formed during frying makes them especially appetizing. These cutlets can be served with sour cream, fresh vegetables, or herbs to highlight their light flavor. They pair well with delicate sauces and can be used as a standalone dish or side. The protein-rich vegetarian option is suitable for a varied diet and can serve as a pleasant alternative to traditional meat cutlets.
