Preparation steps

01

Preparing the bowl — Melt the butter in the multicooker, pour it into a separate dish. Sprinkle the bottom of the bowl with semolina for easy removal of the casserole. Time: 3 mins. Guide: Bottom evenly covered with semolina.

02

Separating the eggs — Break the eggs, separate the whites from the yolks into separate containers. Divide the sugar in half. Time: 5 mins. Guide: Whites and yolks in separate containers.

03

Whisking the whites — Whisk the egg whites with half the sugar until stiff peaks form. In a separate dish, mix the yolks with the other half of the sugar. Time: 7 mins. Guide: Whites have formed a stiff foam, not collapsing.

04

Mixing the cottage cheese — Mix the cottage cheese with melted butter and whipped yolks. Add lemon juice mixed with half a teaspoon of baking soda. Time: 3 mins. Guide: Uniform mass without lumps.

05

Adding dry ingredients — Add the mixture of flour and semolina with vanilla sugar. Gently fold in the whipped egg whites with soft vertical movements. Time: 4 mins. Guide: White foam evenly distributed in the mass.

06

Pouring the batter — Pour the soft mixture into the prepared multicooker bowl, distribute evenly. Time: 2 mins. Guide: Smooth and even surface.

07

Baking in a multicooker — Close the lid of the multicooker and set the ‘Baking’ mode. Cook the casserole until done, without opening the lid for the first 40 minutes to prevent it from sinking. After the programme ends, let the casserole stand in the keep-warm mode for 10–15 minutes, then carefully remove it using the steaming basket. Time: 60–70 minutes. Guide: the top should be slightly browned, the middle should be springy when pressed lightly, and the casserole should easily come away from the sides of the bowl.

08

Tip Serve the casserole warm or chilled, drizzled with sour cream, jam, honey, or apricot preserve. Can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator until the next day. The recipe works in all types of multicookers: Redmond, Polaris, Scarlett, Moulinex, and others.
