If the cutlets keep falling apart when they hit the frying pan, adding a familiar ingredient to the minced meat – eggs – will help solve this problem.

However, in some cases it is worth abandoning the use of this component.

If you decide to fry the minced meat to make a filling for pancakes, pies and other baked goods, you don’t need to add an egg.

But onions in minced meat in this case, on the contrary, are welcome – with it the filling will be juicier.

In addition, minced meat for lasagna, chebureki and pelmeni is also used without adding raw eggs.

The list of “forbidden” dishes also included pasta, for example, Bolognese.

If you decide to make a burger at home, the patty should be made from chopped or minced meat - no egg needed.

The same rule applies to classic kebab, which contains only minced meat, onions and spices.
