Sweet cheese papanasi, delicious cream and berry sauce Who doesn't remember the moments spent around the table, tasting warm, fluffy, and aromatic papanasi? This beloved dessert is not just a culinary delight, but also a story of flavors and traditions passed down through generations. Papanasi are the perfect choice to impress guests or to savor a portion of nostalgia in the comfort of your own home. Preparation time: 30 minutes Baking time: 20 minutes Total time: 50 minutes Number of servings: 16 papanasi Ingredients For papanasi: - 180 g flour - 180 g sweet cheese (preferably well-drained) - 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt - 100 g starch - 50 g sugar - 30 g semolina - 1 whole egg + 1 yolk - 1 teaspoon baking powder - Vanilla (to taste) - Lemon zest (from a medium lemon) - Starch for dusting (or flour) - Oil for frying (enough to cover the papanasi) - Vanilla powdered sugar for decoration For the delicious cream: - 5 tablespoons sweet cheese - 3 tablespoons powdered sugar - 3 tablespoons liquid cream - Vanilla (to taste) For the berry sauce: - 1/2 cup frozen berries (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries) - 5 tablespoons brown sugar - Vanilla (to taste) - 1 teaspoon butter Preparation Step 1: Preparing the papanasi dough 1. Start by sifting the flour together with the baking powder, starch, and semolina into a large bowl. This step helps aerate the ingredients and achieve a fluffy texture. 2. In another bowl, combine the sweet cheese, yogurt, egg, yolk, vanilla, and lemon zest. Mix well until you obtain a homogeneous composition. 3. Add the dry ingredients to the cheese mixture and mix gently. Knead the dough only until it becomes homogeneous, without overworking it, to avoid tough papanasi. Step 2: Shaping the papanasi 1. Wet your hands with starch to prevent the dough from sticking. Break off pieces of dough the size of a ping-pong ball and shape them into rings, ensuring there is a hole in the middle. 2. Place the papanasi on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, sprinkled with a bit of starch to prevent sticking. Step 3: Frying the papanasi 1. In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot enough for the papanasi to fry evenly. 2. Carefully dip the rings of papanasi into the hot oil, frying them on both sides until they become golden and crispy. It is recommended not to overcrowd the pan to allow for even frying. 3. Once ready, remove the papanasi onto an absorbent towel to eliminate excess oil. Step 4: Preparing the delicious cream 1. In a bowl, mix the sweet cheese with the powdered sugar and vanilla. Use a mixer or spatula to homogenize the composition. 2. Gradually add the liquid cream and mix until you obtain a smooth and airy cream. Step 5: Preparing the berry sauce 1. In a saucepan, add the butter, sugar, berries, and vanilla. Place over low heat and let it simmer gently. 2. After a few minutes, when the mixture starts to boil, let it boil for another 3 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it cool slightly. 3. Transfer the sauce to a blender and blend until smooth. Passing through a sieve will help you achieve a fine sauce without seeds. Serving On a plate, arrange the warm papanasi, add a generous spoonful of sweet cheese cream, and pour the berry sauce on top. You can sprinkle a bit of vanilla powdered sugar for a more elegant look. Practical tips: - Choose the sweet cheese carefully: A high-quality cheese will make a difference in the final taste of the papanasi. Make sure it is well-drained to avoid a too-wet dough. - Frying oil: Use an oil with a high smoke point, such as sunflower oil or peanut oil, to avoid burning the papanasi. - Oven version: If you want a healthier option, you can bake the papanasi at 180 degrees Celsius for 20-25 minutes. Frequently asked questions - Can I use cottage cheese? Yes, but make sure to drain it well to avoid a too-wet dough. - How can I store the papanasi? It is recommended to consume them fresh, but if there are leftovers, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. - What drinks go well with papanasi? Papanasi pair very well with aromatic coffee or fruit tea, but also with a sweet wine if you want a more extravagant combination. Nutritional benefits These papanasi are a good source of protein due to the cheese, and Greek yogurt provides a supply of probiotics, beneficial for digestion. Additionally, the berries are full of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, adding freshness to your dessert. Savor every bite and let yourself be carried away by memories and flavors! Sweet cheese papanasi with berry sauce are more than just a dessert – they are a culinary experience that will delight your senses. Enjoy!
