--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      pound         cottage cheese
   1 1/2  pounds        potato
   1                    egg
   4      tablespoons   butter
   2 1/2  tablespoons   sugar
     1/2  cup           sour cream
   1      cup           flour
     1/2  teaspoon      salt

Peel the potatoes and boil in salted water, drain and mash.  Drain the
cottage cheese of all moisture, sieve to remove lumps and mixed with the
mashed potatoe.  Beat in raw egg, salt, sugar and half of the flour.  Stir
well to form a stiff paste.  Place on a floured board and flatten into
thick rounds.  Coat with flour and fry in butter on each side until golden
brown.  Serve hot with sour cream well chilled.

Syrniki can also be served sweet; in this case double the sugar and add a
hand full of raisins.
