Step cooking
- In a liter pan we place 4 chicken eggs, pour 0.5 liters of water, put on a large fire and wait for the liquid to boil. When the water boils, we reduce the fire and cook the eggs for 10 minutes, after which we turn off the fire, carefully pour the water out of the pan, fill the eggs with 1 liter of cold water and leave to cool. Cut the crust from 2 slices of the loaf, put them in a deep plate, pour 150-200 ml of milk and leave to soak.
- We wash 800 g of pork under running water, dry it with a paper towel, cut off excess fat and veins, then cut it into pieces. Remove the husks from 1 onion and divide it into quarters. Peel 1 clove of garlic.
- Pass pieces of meat into a deep bowl through a meat grinder, alternating them with onions and garlic.
- Squeeze the slices of the loaf a little and add them to the minced meat, then break 1 chicken egg there, sprinkle 1 tsp. salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper, then mix thoroughly.
- The forcemeat needs to be beaten off, for this we form a ball from it, lift it and throw it back into a deep container. We do this for 1-2 minutes until it becomes denser.
- We peel the boiled eggs, cut them into small cubes and pour them into a deep container.
- Rub on a fine grater 100 g of hard cheese and add it to the chopped eggs.
- We rinse under flowing water a 0.5 bunch of parsley and a 0.5 bunch of dill, dry them, remove the stems, chop the greens and add to the cheese and eggs.
- Add 0.25 tsp to the egg mixture. black pepper, 0.5 tsp salt and 20 g of butter at room temperature, after which we mix everything thoroughly until smooth.
- Pour 200 ml of water into a deep plate, wet the working surface and hands with it, then form balls with a diameter of about 6 cm from the minced meat and lay them on the working surface. You should get 13 stuffing balls.
- We take one ball of minced meat, form a cake of it with a thickness of about 5-7 mm, lay 1 tsp in the middle. with a slide of filling and connect the edges, as when molding pies, then wet our hands with water and give the product the shape of a patty, rolling it in hands. Do the same with the remaining 12 minced balls.
- Pour 0.5 stack into the pan. sunflower oil, put on medium heat and wait for the oil to warm up.
- Pour 1 stack into a plate. breadcrumbs and carefully roll zrazy in them, after which we give them a more flat shape.
- We spread the zrazy into the heated oil, make the fire less than average, cover the pan with a lid and fry the product for about 3.5 minutes until golden brown, then turn it on the other side and fry it under the lid for another 3.5 minutes until browning.
- Ready zrazy are placed in a 3-liter pan, pour 70 ml of boiled water to the bottom, close the lid, put on a small fire and wait until all the liquid has evaporated.
- When the liquid has boiled away, and the zrazy have been steamed, put them on the dinner plate to the side dish and serve.
