Syrniki with Poppy Seed Filling is a delightful and traditional Eastern European dish that offers a perfect balance of sweet and creamy flavors. This dish is primarily made with cottage cheese, which not only makes the pancakes tender and moist but also adds a good amount of protein. The addition of poppy seeds for the filling introduces a nutty and slightly sweet flavor which complements the creamy texture of the cooked pancakes. Garnished with blueberries and optionally topped with condensed milk or sour cream, these syrniki are not just tasty but also visually appealing.

Create Poppy Seed Filling

Start by grinding the poppy seeds until they are slightly broken. Mix the ground poppy seeds with a small amount of sugar to create the filling. Set aside.

Prepare Syrniki Batter

In a mixing bowl, combine cottage cheese, egg, sugar, and gradually add flour to form a thick batter. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Form and Fill Pancakes

Take a small amount of the batter and flatten it slightly. Place a small amount of the poppy seed filling in the center, then close the batter around the filling, forming a ball. Flatten the ball slightly to form a pancake shape.

Cook Syrniki

Heat vegetable oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Fry the syrniki on each side until they are golden brown. Make sure they are cooked evenly on both sides.

Serve

Serve the syrniki warm, garnished with blueberries. Optionally, top with condensed milk or sour cream for extra richness.
