So that the curd mass does not stick to your hands during the formation of balls, you can grease them with oil (a small amount). Remember the recipe "Kolobok"? What should be done so that the handsome curds do not crack on the outside and bake well?

For this purpose, it is recommended to use a frying pan withthick bottom or deep fryer. To prevent baking from being covered with a burnt crust on top, do not make a big fire. Fry the balls until golden, in parts. When cooked, sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve with your favorite jam.

The balls will turn over in the oil themselves, there is no need to interfere in this process. When they reach a golden color, we take it out and send it to a paper towel. After all the koloboks have been fried and they have got rid of excess oil, put them on a dish. The task is completed - the recipe "Kolobok" is restored. You can eat tender and airy curd balls both hot and cold - they will be great in any case.
