Curd pudding - recipe No. 1, basic
The recipe is classic, basic. This is exactly how it is prepared in England, the birthplace of puddings: with eggs and flour. Knowing the basic recipe, you can complicate the composition and preparation technology. But this curd pudding is good on its own, so additional manipulations are not necessary.
Ingredients for the basic recipe
- cottage cheese - 750 grams
- eggs - 3
- salt - a pinch
- flour - 300 grams
- sugar - 120 grams
- vanilla essence or vanilla sugar - a couple of drops or a couple of teaspoons
- baking powder - a quarter teaspoon
How to make curd pudding
- Place cottage cheese, sugar and vanilla sugar (or add essence) into a bowl. Separate the eggs into yolks and whites. Add the yolks to the cottage cheese, and place the whites in a separate bowl.
- Using a mixer, thoroughly mix the cottage cheese with the remaining ingredients.
- Add baking powder and flour and mix well again. The dough will turn out quite stiff, especially if the cottage cheese was dry.
- Beat the egg whites, adding salt, until soft peaks form.
- Add a third of the whipped egg whites to the cottage cheese. Mix very carefully and carefully with a spatula or spoon, moving them from bottom to top - do not lose the air that enriched the protein and which will give softness and airiness to the future pudding. Next, add the remaining protein and mix gently again.
- The curd mass will turn from hard to soft.
- Preheat the oven to t 180. Grease a baking dish with butter. Pour the dough into the pan, spreading it evenly.
- Bake for 40-55 minutes, check for doneness as usual - with a wooden stick. Remove the finished pudding from the oven, let it stand for 10-15 minutes, and then turn it over or remove it from the mold onto a plate.
- Delicate curd pudding can be served warm or cold. It just begs for milk and fruit sauce. In addition, it can be served with condensed milk, any jam, or sour cream.
ON A NOTE
Cottage cheese for pudding can be of any fat content. If you use low-fat, you don’t have to add baking powder. You can also combine two types of cottage cheese: pasty and grains, in this case the texture of the pudding will be more tender than if you take only grains.
Don't put a lot of flour, don't overwhelm the curd flavor.

Curd pudding - recipe No. 2, with cherries
By adding fruits or berries to the cottage cheese, we get a completely new taste and texture of the pudding itself. You can make curd pudding with any fruit (berries), but it is advisable that they be sweet. Drier ones, such as cherry, are better so that excess liquid does not interfere with baking and rising during baking.
Cherries are also good because they practically do not change shape after baking, remaining just as elastic and attractive. It is ideal for those who do not like cloying sweetness.

- eggs - 4
- semolina - 80 grams
- sugar - 150 grams

How to make curd pudding with cherries
- Divide the eggs into yolks (in a deep bowl) and whites (in a not very deep bowl). Beat the yolks with sugar - the sugar should almost completely dissolve, and the yolks should increase in volume and lighten.
- Add all the cottage cheese to the beaten yolks and mix thoroughly (you can use a mixer at low speed).
- Add semolina, vanilla and a small pinch of salt. Mix well again.
- Beat the whites until stable but soft foam.
- Add the egg whites to the cottage cheese and stir. Do this carefully, lifting the curd mass from below. Do not use a mixer, only use a spatula or spoon.
- Wash the cherries, dry them and remove the seeds. Grease a baking dish with butter. Preheat the oven to 180 t. Place half of the curd dough into the mold. Place cherries on top.
- Then pour the second half of the dough and again layer the cherries.
- Place in the oven for 50-1 hour. Check doneness with a wooden stick.

Curd pudding in a slow cooker
Modern technologies make life much easier for busy women. Thanks to the one who invented the multicooker and endowed it with such almost limitless possibilities. Let's prepare curd pudding in a slow cooker.
Ingredients:
- half a kilo of cottage cheese;
- eggs - 5 pieces;
- half a glass of sour cream;
- half a glass of sugar;
- starch - 2 tbsp;
- vanillin;
- butter for greasing the multicooker bowl.
Try to buy homemade eggs at the market. Then the color of the pudding will be simply amazing, richly creamy.
Preparation:
- We start by carefully kneading the cottage cheese, without leaving a single lump.
- The next step is to separate the whites from the yolks in the eggs. For now we put the whites in the refrigerator, and put the yolks into the future dough. Sprinkle starch and vanillin there and add sour cream.
- Using a mixer, beat the mixture until it has a creamy consistency.
- We take the whites out of the refrigerator and beat them well, gradually adding a glass of sugar. We need white, fluffy, strong foam.
- We gradually introduce the whites into the dough, constantly stirring with a spoon, until we get an airy, light mass.
- The movements of the spoon should go strictly from bottom to top. This is the only way to evenly distribute the proteins in the mass, and not “trample” them into the dough
- Place the finished dough into a greased multicooker bowl.
- We insert the bowl into the unit, set the “Baking” mode and go about our business for an hour. Plus another 15 minutes after turning off, during which we will not open the multicooker lid so that the pudding does not settle.
- When serving, decorate with fresh berries or beautifully colored jam.
