• all-purpose flour40 g
• sugar2 tbsp

Préparation

1. Press the tvorog through a fine sieve so it is smooth and free of lumps.
2. Mix the tvorog with the egg, sugar, vanilla sugar, and salt until evenly combined.
3. Add the flour and stir just until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms; do not overwork it.
4. With floured hands, shape the dough into 8 small round patties about 1.5 cm thick.
5. Heat the butter and oil together in a heavy skillet over medium heat until the butter foams.
6. Fry the patties in batches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and set in the center.
7. Drain briefly on paper and serve warm, traditionally with sour cream.
