Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and grease a 22×22 cm baking dish with a thin layer of oil.

2. Prepare the ingredients and mix cottage¹ cheese with egg, semolina³, sugar and raisins⁶ until a smooth mass, and let stand for 10 minutes for the semolina to swell.

3. Transfer the mixture to the prepared dish and spread the surface with a spatula.

4. Bake in the preheated oven at 180°C for about 25 minutes until a golden crust forms and the center is firm; check by piercing – the skewer should come out dry.

5. Remove the dish from the oven, let the casserole cool slightly in the dish for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

6. Serve with sour⁵ cream, and decorate if desired and cut into portions before serving.
