Lavash with cream cheese and cucumber
If you prefer, make this lavash with regular cottage cheese. First, strain it through a fine metal sieve, season with salt and pepper to taste, and stir.
- Cucumber
- Green onions
- Dill
- Parsley
- Curd cheese
- Thin lavash
- Salt
- Ground black pepper
- Prepare the ingredients for the appetizer. Wash the fresh cucumbers and pat dry with a paper towel. Grate them coarsely and season with salt. Let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Sort the green onions, dill, and parsley, then rinse under running water and pat dry on paper towels. Then finely chop and place in a bowl.
- Squeeze the grated cucumbers with your hands to remove excess liquid. Transfer to a bowl with chopped herbs. Add cream cheese, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir.
- Place a sheet of lavash on the work surface. Spread the cheese filling on top. Roll it up. Wrap it in plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour.
- Remove the roll from the refrigerator. Cut into large slices and arrange on a plate. You can garnish the lavash with cream cheese and cucumber with some herb leaves.
You can also add chopped crab sticks, boiled chicken fillet, fish, or just good, tasty ham to the filling of the lavash roll with cream cheese.
Despite a rather simple list of ingredients, this festive lavash roll disappears from the table in minutes. Which isn't surprising: when sliced, it looks very elegant, and the rich flavor makes you reach for a second piece immediately after the first. Furthermore, this recipe includes two fillings: fish and chicken. This means everyone can choose their favorite! Simply buy thin lavash (the package usually comes with two sheets, which is exactly what we need), quickly prepare the filling, spread it out, roll the rolls, and let them rest. An hour later, all that's left to do is slice them, arrange them beautifully on a plate, and await well-deserved compliments from your guests!
Lavash rolls with cheese and herbs are perfect for breakfast, afternoon tea, or a snack, or they can be served as a light, budget-friendly dinner. They're perfect for a holiday table or buffet. Although the rolls can be filled with anything—meat and fish, various types of cheese, any baked or fresh vegetables, even fruit—the version with feta cheese and herbs remains a firm favorite. Our step-by-step recipe carefully measures the ingredients, ensuring the perfect lavash roll with cheese and herbs. Make this appetizer at home—you won't regret it!
These lavash rolls with a variety of fillings are delicious and filling, and they're also very compact, making them easy to take on the go. You can also use thinly sliced ham, sausage, or buzhenka (baked pork) and any chopped vegetables you like as fillings. We'll be making two types of rolls: the first with oven-baked sweet peppers, and the second with lightly salted red fish, cheese, and herbs. Which one tastes best is up to you. But we recommend making both, cutting them into neat rolls, and serving as an appetizer.
Lavash with cheese and dill, a simple and quick appetizer, can be prepared the night before serving, allowing the roll to sit in the refrigerator overnight. This will be beneficial: the filling will become firmer and will perfectly bind the layers of thin dough. This will make slicing the lavash with cheese and dill much easier, resulting in neater pieces. Speaking of serving, to make the stuffed lavash look better on the table, place the sliced roll on a plate lined with lettuce leaves and garnish with small sprigs of dill.
