Cutlets are a simple dish that is perfect for any meal.

There is nothing complicated about making cutlets, but questions may arise during frying.

Many newbies to cooking often argue about whether or not to use a lid during the process.

Experienced housewives are sure that the cutlets should first be fried in a preheated frying pan without a lid and over high heat.

As soon as a golden brown crust appears and all the meat juices are hidden under it, you can move on to the next step, which involves bringing the cutlets to readiness.

In this case, you need to stew the treat under the lid.

As a result, the meat dish will be soft, tender and juicy.

It is worth mentioning the aroma separately, which will not leave anyone indifferent. The crust will become denser and crispier.

To do this, you can pour water and tomato paste into the frying pan, and also add chopped vegetables, for example, onions and carrots.
