Experienced cooks recommend adding a little ice or ice water to the minced meat.
In this case, the cutlets will be juicy for a long time, since the water will evaporate during frying, but the juiciness of the minced meat will remain.
In addition, you need to add the right onion. You should not mix raw vegetables into the mince.
It is best to pre-fry the onions in oil.
Another secret to delicious cutlets that stay soft and tender for a long time is bread soaked in milk.
In this case, you should not take fresh and soft bread. Chefs advise taking stale white bread. In this case, the moisture inside will be better retained.
The dish will stay soft longer if you mix a little fat into the minced meat.
The fat can be any that matches the taste of the main meat: beef, pork, fat tail. You can add a piece of lard or butter. The effect will be positive.
You should fry the cutlets only in a preheated frying pan with oil. In this case, the treat will not fall apart in the frying pan, it will remain fluffy and juicy.
