Baked Egg Balls with Curd Cheese are a savory dish made by shaping eggs and curd cheese into small portions and baking them. They can be served warm for breakfast, as a snack, or alongside a meal.
Mix eggs with curd cheese until the mixture can hold a shape, form small balls, and place them on a lined baking tray. Bake until the centers are set. Herbs or pepper can be added for extra flavor.
They often fall apart when the curd cheese is too wet or the mixture has not been shaped firmly. Drain excess liquid from the cheese, form compact balls, and leave them undisturbed while the outsides set in the oven.
Yes, cottage cheese can replace curd cheese, but its moisture level varies. Drain it well before mixing with the eggs; a wetter mixture may spread instead of holding the ball shape.
They are done when their centers are set rather than runny and the balls hold their shape. Cut one open to check the middle; if it is still wet, return the tray to the oven and check again.
Serve Baked Egg Balls with Curd Cheese with a crisp salad, sliced tomatoes, or roasted vegetables. For breakfast or brunch, toast and fresh herbs make easy accompaniments.
Yes, finely chopped herbs or vegetables can be mixed in, but remove excess moisture first. Watery additions can loosen the egg-and-cheese mixture and make the balls harder to shape.
Yes, you can mix the ingredients ahead and keep the covered mixture refrigerated until you are ready to bake. Shape the balls just before baking, and drain off any liquid that has collected.
Cool the leftovers, place them in a covered container, and refrigerate them promptly. Eat them within a few days and reheat only the portion you plan to serve.
Yes, freeze them after they have cooled completely. Freeze the balls separately on a tray first, then transfer them to a sealed freezer container; thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.

Baked Egg Balls with Curd Cheese are made by combining eggs with lor, a mild, fresh Turkish whey cheese, shaping the mixture into small portions and baking them. They make a simple savoury dish rooted in home-style Turkish cooking, with a soft, tender centre and a gently tangy cheese flavour.
Serve them warm for breakfast or brunch, or as a light lunch with salad and sliced tomatoes. They are protein-rich: a 100 g portion provides 14.5 g of protein. For a lighter meal, pair them with plenty of greens; check the saltiness of the lor before seasoning, as it can vary.
