1. 1

   In a bowl, combine the drained tvorog, egg, sugar, and vanilla sugar (if using). Mix well until smooth.

   💡 Proffstips: Ensure the tvorog is as dry as possible to prevent syrniki from becoming too soft.
2. 2

   Add the flour and salt to the tvorog mixture. Stir until just combined. The dough should be soft but hold its shape.

   💡 Proffstips: Avoid overmixing, which can make the syrniki tough.
3. 3

   Lightly flour a clean surface. Take about 2 tablespoons of dough and gently shape it into a small patty, about 1.5-2 cm thick. You can use a cookie cutter for uniform shapes.

4. 4

   Heat a thin layer of vegetable oil or butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.

   💡 Proffstips: Medium heat is important to cook them through without burning.
5. 5

   Carefully place the syrniki into the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 3-5 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.

   💡 Proffstips: Adjust heat as needed to maintain a steady, moderate temperature.
6. 6

   Remove the syrniki from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

7. 7

   Serve warm with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, fruit jam, honey, or fresh berries.

   💡 Proffstips: A dollop of sour cream is a classic accompaniment.
