Step by step

Method

  1. 01

    Cheese hard varieties also choose to your taste: Gouda, Altermani, Russian, Poshekhonsky ...

  2. 02

    Prepare beans, cheese, vegetable oil, egg and breadcrumbs.

  3. 03

    Grate the cheese on a fine grater.

  4. 04

    If you use dry beans, then it must be pre-soaked, and then boiled as indicated on the package. I have fine white beans and black preto.

  5. 05

    Kneel or grind the beans in mashed potatoes.

  6. 06

    Then combine and stir the beans with the cheese.

  7. 07

    It is especially effective when beans are used in different colors.

  8. 08

    You can stop there and ... serve cheese and bean pâté or in the form of a salad ;

  9. 09

    In addition to beans, the salad also includes pomegranate grains, fried Adygean cheese, leaf salad, red onions and is seasoned with savory pomegranate sauce (or any spicy berry sauce).

  10. 10

    But we're going further... Make beans with croquet balls.

  11. 11

    Dip them in a stirred egg and collapse in breadcrumbs.

  12. 12

    Fry croquets in a hot deep-fried vegetable oil (it is difficult for me to show this, because my camera is afraid to approach boiling oil). Ready-made croquets briefly lay out on paper napkins to remove excess oil and serve as a side dish for meat or chicken dishes or as a standalone dish.

  13. 13

    Bean dishes are perfectly combined with berry sauces, especially tart or spicy taste.

Ready to serve

Serve the dish as directed and enjoy it while it is at its best.

Bon appétit — enjoy your meal!
