How to cook with photos step by step
Wash the meat thoroughly, carefully cut off the film, but leave the fat. It is necessary to remove the film, since during the grinding process it will clog the knives in the meat grinder. You need to grind the meat into mince. It is advisable to use the middle grate on the meat grinder. We peel the onion and also pass it through a meat grinder (you can also chop it very finely with a knife). Combine it with ground minced meat.
We also add ground black pepper, meat spices (at your discretion), and salt. Add cold water there.
Mix everything thoroughly.
Then we take one tenth of the minced meat, roll it into a small ball and roll it between our palms. This will allow you to beat and give the necessary shape to the cutlets.
Then roll the cutlet in breadcrumbs. It needs to be sprinkled, but lightly or generously depends on your taste preferences.
Place the cutlets in a pre-heated frying pan with sunflower oil. Fry, but only over very low heat for several minutes, with the lid closed.
