Potato and Cheese Casserole Recipe Perfect for Breaking Fast
After a long fast, a warm potato and cheese casserole offers a comforting and filling meal that's easy to prepare and suitable for the whole family. This dish pairs well with fresh vegetable salad or yogurt for a balanced meal.
The recipe calls for six medium peeled potatoes, 200 grams of crumbled Bulgarian cheese, 200 grams of grated yellow cheese, 150 grams of cottage cheese, two eggs, two tablespoons of flour, 50 grams of melted butter, one teaspoon of salt, half a teaspoon of black pepper, and optional nutmeg. The potatoes are boiled until soft and mashed smoothly, then combined with butter, eggs, flour, cottage cheese, Bulgarian cheese, and half of the yellow cheese. Seasonings are added before mixing thoroughly.
The mixture is placed in a greased baking dish, topped with the remaining yellow cheese, and baked in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 35 to 40 minutes until golden and firm. It should cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This simple, hearty casserole is ideal for a nourishing meal after fasting.
