Potato pancake roll with chicken
An interesting version of rolls, prepared according to the all-in-one principle (with a side dish), is made from potato pancakes stuffed with chicken. Cooking them does not require any complex skills, but you will need to devote time to them. The result will repay all the labor and time spent. The results are tender, delicious potato pancakes with a juicy meat filling. No one can resist such a delicacy.
Ingredients:
- potatoes - 5-6 tubers;
- onion – 2 heads;
- egg – 1 pc.;
- sour cream – 3 tbsp. l.;
- minced meat (chicken) – 300 g;
- cheese – 150 g;
- flour – 3-4 tbsp. l;
- salt, spices and herbs - to taste.
Cooking process:
1. Cut one onion into very thin slices. Grate the potatoes very finely (into porridge), preferably on a special grater. Add salt, add egg and flour and knead potato dough. Fry pancakes in a frying pan with vegetable oil. It is enough to simply brown them without bringing them to full readiness. If it is difficult to turn the cakes, they tear or break, you need to add a little flour to the dough.
2. For minced meat, mix chicken, ground in a blender or using a meat grinder, onion, chopped very finely, salt, spices and herbs. Place some minced meat on the prepared pancake and spread it into a thin layer. Roll up the roll.
3. Place the rolls on a baking sheet, cover with foil and place in the oven for 20 minutes at 200 degrees. In fact, you only need to bake the filling.
4. After the specified time, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Remove the foil. Grease the rolls with sour cream, sprinkle with grated cheese and put back until an appetizing golden brown crust forms.
It turns out very tasty. Those who love potato pancakes will appreciate these rolls 100%. And those who have never tried traditional Belarusian cuisine will also enjoy this original improvisation on the theme of potato pancakes.

Then add a little salt and pepper to the chicken on both sides. Based on taste, rub salt and pepper with your hands. Then we put it in our boats.

Chicken aspic
Instead of the traditional fatty jellied pork legs, you can prepare a tasty and dietary chicken jellied meat. You will need the following ingredients:
- chicken breasts with bones - 700 g;
- drumsticks or thighs - 800 g;
- chicken legs - 1 kg;
- onion - head;
- garlic - clove;
- allspice - 6 - 10 peas;
- bay leaf - 2 - 3 pieces;
- gelatin - 50 - 60 g;
- salt - to taste;
- boiled eggs, parsley, carrots and green peas (optional) - for decoration.
Place all types of chicken in a pan and cover with water. The liquid should cover the chicken by 2-3 cm. Place the dishes over medium heat and cook until boiling. At the same time, boil about 5 liters of water in another saucepan.
When the chicken broth comes to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer for another 20 minutes. Then pour out the liquid. Pour boiling water from the second pan over the chicken. Cook the product for another 2.5 hours, covered, over low heat.
Then add salt, onion, bay leaf and allspice to the broth. Cook over low heat for another 1 hour. When the meat comes off the bones easily, remove the pan from the stove.
Pass the garlic through a press and add it to the broth. Cool the meat and broth until warm. This may take 5-6 hours.
1 hour before assembling the dish, pour a glass of cold water over the gelatin and leave it to swell. Prepare molds for aspic or jelly.
Pass the broth through a colander. Discard the onions, peppercorns and bay leaves. Separate the meat from the bones and skin, chop finely and place in molds.
Place the water with gelatin on low heat and heat slightly while stirring, avoiding boiling. Pour the resulting liquid into the broth and stir the mixture.
If you wish, you can place halves of a boiled egg, slices of carrots, parsley and green peas in the molds on a layer of meat. These are optional ingredients, but they give the dish a more aesthetic appearance.
Carefully pour the broth into the molds. Cool the product at room temperature and then refrigerate for 6 hours. Serve the aspic with horseradish or mustard.
Royal chicken for the New Year's table
This is a dish that should definitely be on the New Year's table. We will bake the whole chicken on a bed of fruit in a honey-orange marinade. From the name it is already clear that the taste is excellent, guests at the holiday will be delighted.
Ingredients:
Step 1.
First, prepare the marinade; to do this, finely grate the zest of one orange. Then cut it and squeeze out the juice from only one half. We don't need the second one.
Step 2.
Now we need an immersion blender and a container for it (special or suitable narrow). Place the mustard in a container and place the blender in it.
Definitely in that order!
Now pour orange juice, apple cider vinegar, honey and sunflower oil on top.
Beat at high speed and do not raise the knives at the beginning of whipping. Only then we gradually raise it. You should get a homogeneous mass.
Step 3.
Then add the orange zest and mix with a spoon.
Step 4.
Be sure to wash the carcass and blot it with paper towels on all sides.
Coat the chicken on all sides with salt and then with our marinade. Don't forget to lubricate the inside too.
It is advisable to tie the chicken legs with twine.
Step 5.
Now we put the chicken in a baking bag and pour the remaining marinade into it (we leave part of the marinade for final lubrication), spreading it a little throughout the bag.
We tie the bag on both sides.
Step 6.
Place in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for about one hour.
Step 7
A few minutes before the end of cooking, cut the top of the bag and open the chicken.
Set the oven to maximum temperature and let the carcass brown.
Step 8
While the chicken is coming up, prepare the fruit pillow. Peel the orange and divide it into slices. We peel the apples and cut them into slices, much like oranges.
Step 9
Now we need to melt 3 tablespoons of sugar in a frying pan, stirring constantly. Having obtained a caramel shade, add butter and mix everything until smooth.
Then add 50 ml of hot water, stir and boil until the syrup thickens for 1-2 minutes.
Step 10
Place orange slices and apple slices into the resulting caramel. After a minute, turn the fruit over and add two anise stars.
Cover the pan with a lid and simmer for several minutes.
The fruit should become soft, but not lose its shape.
Step 11
Now put the fruit on a plate. You can top it with more caramel.
Step 12
We place the chicken on our fruit and grease it with the remaining honey-orange marinade.

“Chicken tobacco” for the festive New Year’s table
Well, we end our selection with a wonderful recipe. Some people buy ready-made chicken in the store, but I advise you to cook it yourself, then it will be even tastier. This dish is ideal for the holiday table.
Do you know why this dish is called that, although there is no tobacco in the recipe? It's all about the distorted name. Just the real name is “chicken tapaka”, which comes from a Georgian frying pan called “tapaka”.

- Salt;
- Black pepper;
- Red hot pepper (optional);
- Curry;
- Garlic (preferably dry);
- Lemon juice;
- Butter - approximately 50-60 g.

First, place our chicken in water with a small amount of vinegar for 1 hour.
Step 2.
Then we place the carcass on cling film and cut it lengthwise along the breast, opening it.
Then we turn the chicken over and use our palms to press it with all our weight so that you can hear the bones breaking. A few clicks is enough, not much.
If you don't have enough strength, you can beat it with a hammer.
Step 3.
Do not turn the chicken over, sprinkle the entire surface with seasonings: black pepper, salt, red pepper (not much, but you don’t need to use it), a little curry, dry garlic (or squeeze it out) and sprinkle with lemon juice.
We also raise the wings. Now we put on a glove (you can use your hands) and thoroughly coat the entire surface of the chicken.

The butter should be soft, you can melt it a little and coat the entire surface of the carcass.

Some tips for choosing poultry meat
I began to notice that recently there have been a lot of low-quality products in stores. It has more to do with the fact that the goods are stale, at least with frozen products. It’s even worse when the product is defrosted and frozen again several times.
But in order to choose good meat, you should pay attention to the following:
- skin color. In a young chicken it is thin and white. And in an adult and old kritsa it is thick, rough with a yellow tint. Well, if other colors are present, then you should completely abandon this meat.
- If you choose packaged meat, it must be whole. Air has a detrimental effect on meat. You can take the packaging, look at its integrity, just as if you accidentally pick up the packaging with your finger; if it is torn, then the packaging is weak. We put this product aside. And if you turn the package over, no liquid should leak out of it.
- Please pay attention to the presence of ice in the package. If there is one, then the carcass was re-frozen. This may mean that the bird has most likely expired.
That's all for us, I hope you were able to find something interesting for yourself. Join us in classmates, write comments. That's all for now and see you soon!
