Oscypek z Żurawiną

Oscypek cheese does the heavy lifting here, with cranberry sauce rounding it out. A Polish snack that takes 20 minutes, start to finish. Each serving lands at 420 calories with 25g of protein, so it eats like a much heavier meal. Naturally vegetarian, it scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 4 Oscypek cheese
• 1/2 cup Cranberry sauce
• 1 tbsp Butter

Steps

1. Slice the oscypek into thick slabs — the smoked sheep cheese should squeak faintly.
2. Sear in a hot dry pan 2 minutes per side until the outside caramelizes.
3. The cheese softens but holds its shape; that is the magic of oscypek.
4. Serve hot with a generous spoonful of tart cranberry sauce.
5. The smoky-salty cheese against the sharp cranberry is the whole argument.
6. Mountain hut food; eat it imagining the Tatras.
