Potato casserole with cottage cheese, the recipe for which we decided to offer you, is a delicious simple dish. You can easily cook it in a frying pan. The filling can be anything, but we decided to make cottage cheese.
Casserole ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes,
- a third of the onion,
- salt,
- ground black pepper,
Filling ingredients:
- tomato sauce,
- curd cheese or cottage cheese.
We will also need a little olive oil during the cooking process.
Recipe with photos step by step:
Wash the potatoes, peel them and grate them on a medium-sized grater. Salt.
Leave the grated potatoes for 5 minutes to release the juice and starch. After this, drain the juice. You can repeat the procedure. We don't need excess moisture and starch.
Chop the onion very finely and add to the potatoes. Pepper and mix everything.
Spread half of the potato mixture in an even layer on a greased frying pan.
Since the potato-curd casserole will need to be turned over, a double frying pan (one of which serves as a lid) is best suited. Turning the casserole in such a pan will not be difficult.
Spread the filling, leaving the edges free.
Spread the rest of the potato mixture over the filling, trying to cover it completely, and also press the edges well.
Place on medium heat, cover with a lid and wait for 20 minutes.
Then turn the casserole over to the other side and bake for another 15 minutes. This time I didn't grease the pan with oil and still got a nice crust.
Remove the casserole from the pan by turning it over a plate.
The dish is ready, serve hot.
Bon appetit!

Step-by-step preparation
Step #2
How to cook potato casserole with cottage cheese:
Rub the cottage cheese through a sieve or grind in a meat grinder. Stir in softened butter until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Step #3
Peel the potatoes and cut into very thin slices.
Step #4
Grease a deep baking dish with butter. Place a layer of potato slices on the bottom, salt and pepper. Spread a thin layer of curd mixture on top.
Step #5
Continue layering until all ingredients are gone. There should be potatoes on top. Choose a very deep baking tray or do not fill it to the top. I made such a mistake. During the baking process, a lot of liquid is released, then some of it evaporates, some is absorbed by the potatoes, but initially it begins to flow over the sides of the baking sheet. I had to place it in another large baking tray.
Before putting the pan in the oven, preheated to 200 degrees, it must be tightly covered with foil. Bake for 1 hour.
Step #6
Grate hard cheese on a coarse grater. Prepare the filling. Beat the eggs with a fork, add sour cream, salt and pepper, add nutmeg or other favorite spices. Remove the foil from the pan and pour the filling over the potatoes. Sprinkle grated cheese on top. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes and leave the potato casserole in the switched off oven for another 15 minutes.
