Cooking a dish step by step with a photo:
Add cold (I would say ice cold) butter (130 grams), which we cut into smaller pieces or rub on a coarse grater. You can put the oil in the freezer in advance for a couple of hours.
Finally, pour 120 grams of granulated sugar into the bowl. In general, I should note that the order in which the products are laid is not of fundamental importance.
We mix everything quickly and quickly to get small crumbs - everything happens in a combine in a matter of seconds. In texture, such a crumb resembles wet sand. If you use your hands to make loose dough, rub everything between your palms. For now, put the dough in the refrigerator and turn on the oven to warm up (180 degrees).
For the filling, you need to combine 200 grams of cottage cheese, 50 grams of granulated sugar, 1 egg and a tablespoon vanilla sugar... The last ingredient serves as a flavoring, so it can be replaced with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar mixed with a pinch of vanillin.
We punch everything in a blender until a homogeneous flowing mass is formed. By consistency curd filling resembles low-fat sour cream.
We take a baking dish (I have a square, 20x20 cm). Pour half of the flour crumbs into it, level it.
We sort out my berries in advance. To do this, we collect cold water in a large container, put strawberries in it and let it swim for a minute - this way the sand will sink to the bottom. Gently mix the berries with your hands, then take them out and transfer them to a colander or sieve, removing the stalks. Strawberry weight (300 grams) is indicated already prepared. Be sure to dry the berries thoroughly (preferably with napkins or paper towels), as excess moisture in the filling is not needed. Put the berries in the next layer, slightly sinking them into the curd filling.
