Description
Cottage Cheese Wraps are a refined, light dish balancing creamy tang with crisp vegetables, perfect for a sophisticated bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large delicate wraps or very thin lavash (room temperature)
- 1 1/2 cups full-fat cottage cheese (well-drained)
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt (strained)
- 1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil (mild, fruity)
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 small cucumber, peeled into ribbons
- 8 radishes, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
- 2 tbsp chives, finely sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Microgreens, smoked paprika, or herbed oil for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a bowl, fold drained cottage cheese with Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Ready the vegetables: Use a mandoline or vegetable peeler to create paper-thin cucumber ribbons and radish slices.
- Warm the wraps briefly: Heat a dry skillet over medium for 20–30 seconds per side until just pliable.
- Assemble: Lay each warm wrap flat. Spoon 2–3 tablespoons of the cottage cheese mixture down the center.
- Layer toppings: Arrange cucumber ribbons, radish slices, and herbs over the filling.
- Roll and finish: Fold the bottom edge up, then roll tightly toward the top, tucking ends as you go.
Notes
Chill wraps for 10 minutes if you want cleaner slices. Store uncut wraps tightly wrapped in plastic or beeswax for up to 24 hours.
