Step cooking
Minced meat
- Cut frozen beef weighing 1 kg with fat, veins and a small amount of bacon into small pieces. The meat must be absolutely frozen - this is the secret of making really juicy cutlets.
- We grind chopped beef through a meat grinder until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
- Peel the onion from the husk, then cut it into pieces of medium size of arbitrary shape.
- Repeatedly pass the prepared meat mass through a meat grinder so that the minced meat acquires a softer and more tender texture. In the process of grinding the meat from time to time, add the chopped onion and twist it together with beef.
- In the resulting stuffing, add salt and ground allspice, focusing on your own taste. Pour 350-400 ml of necessarily cold milk there and mix thoroughly with clean hands.
- As soon as the mass becomes viscous and sticky, and also acquires a uniform consistency, we carefully beat it off. To do this, collect the minced meat in one lump and throw it from a short distance back into the bowl. Repeat the procedure 10-12 times.
- The minced meat is covered with foil or cling film, and then put in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Cutlets
- We remove the minced meat from the refrigerator and, without wasting time, form several meatballs weighing 80-100 g. At that time, while we are frying the first portion of the products, put the minced meat back in the refrigerator. In a separate bowl, pour 50-70 g of wheat flour, it will serve us for breading the cutlets.
- We put a wide frying pan on medium heat, after which we pour a small amount of vegetable oil into it. While the oil is heating, roll the formed meat lumps in flour and spread them on a hot frying pan.
- Fry the patties on medium heat until a golden crust appears, after which we turn the products over and cover the pan with a lid. Reduce the heat to low and let the patties stomp and “reach” for about 5-10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, finely chop the parsley and dill, and also prepare a side dish.
- We put ready cutlets on plates and sprinkle them abundantly with chopped greens.
- We take out the rest of the stuffing from the refrigerator and form cutlets. Add a little vegetable oil to the pan, increase the heat to medium again and heat the pan. Next, follow the scenario described above and fry the remaining cutlets in a similar way.
