Crispy Cottage Cheese Puffs
These delightful, flaky puffs are a triumph of simplicity and flavor, and you won’t believe how quickly they come together.
Ingredients
- 3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tbsp butter
- 5 tbsp sunflower oil
- 9 oz cottage cheese
- 5 oz hard cheese
- A large bunch of parsley
Instructions
- Mix water with salt in a bowl.
- Add the flour and knead it into a lean dough.
- Cover the dough with cling film and let it rest for 10 minutes.
- In another bowl, mix the cottage cheese with grated hard cheese and chopped parsley.
- Divide the rested dough into 6 equal parts, and roll each part into a ball.
- While you work with one part of the dough, cover the rest with foil to prevent drying out.
- Roll each ball into a thin circle. You should have 6 thin circles of dough.
- Place these thin circles on top of each other, brushing each layer with a mixture of melted butter and vegetable oil.
- Cover the stacked circles and let them rest for 20 minutes.
- Roll out each of the rested dough rounds as thin as possible until they are nearly transparent.
- Place the prepared filling along one edge of each rolled-out dough round.
- Roll up the dough into a long, thin roll, enclosing the filling. Repeat this process for all the dough and filling.
- Place the resulting “sausages” on a baking tray.
- Brush the tops of the rolls with oil to give them a nice golden color while baking.
- Bake in an oven preheated to 350°F (180°C) for about 35 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once the puffs are done baking, let them cool slightly before serving.
