Cottage Cheese Souffle With Raisins Food

COTTAGE CHEESE SOUFFLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, beat the eggs, and slowly whisk in whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt, garlic, red pepper flakes, and nutmeg. Mix in the cottage cheese, Cheddar cheese, and bacon. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is browned and crispy, and a toothpick inserted into the center of the souffle comes out clean, 55 minutes to 1 hour.

COTTAGE CHEESE PUDDING

Steps:

• Soak raisins in warm water for 15 minutes and drain.
• Remove the crusts from rolls and slice thinly.
• Mix the cheese with a pinch of salt, the sour cream and 2 Tablespoons of the sugar, then mix in the raisins.
• Line the bottom of a buttered oven dish with the bread slices, then cover with the cheese mixture.
• A layer of thinly sliced apples may be added at this stage.
• Cover with the remaining slices of bread. Whisk the eggs with the milk, the grated lemon peel and half of the remaining sugar, and pour the mixture over the pudding.
• Sprinkle with the remaining sugar, dot with the butter pieces and bake in a preheated 350°F oven for about 45 minutes or until brown and the custard has set.

CHEESE SOUFFLé IN 4 EASY STEPS

Steps:

• Preparing the soufflé dish: Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and place a baking sheet on the middle shelf. Butter a 15cm soufflé dish generously, then sprinkle in the breadcrumbs and rotate the dish to ensure the butter is evenly coated. Tip out any excess breadcrumbs.
• Making a thick white sauce: In a pan, melt the butter over a medium heat; stir in the flour and mustard. Cook, stirring, for 1 min. Take off the heat and gradually stir in the milk, mixing it in thoroughly before adding more. Return to the heat and stir continuously until very thick (around 10 mins). Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool. Crack the eggs, placing the whites into a clean bowl and stirring the yolks into the sauce. Stir in cheddar and season well.
• Adding the egg whites: Use a clean whisk to beat the egg whites until peaks form that just hold their shape (electric is best as it will make the job much quicker). Then take a metal spoon and gently stir the whipped whites into the white sauce in a figure of eight.
• Top-hatting: Spoon the mixture into the dish. Run a cutlery knife around the edge to create a 'top hat' effect; this ensures the soufflé rises above the rim and doesn't stick. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 25-30 mins until the top is golden and risen and has a slight wobble. Serve immediately.
• EQUIPMENT: 15cm soufflé dish, saucepan, 2 large mixing bowls, wooden spoon, spatula, baking sheet, large metal spoon, measuring jug, grater, electric whisk, cutlery knife.
