The dish becomes so appetizing that you want to eat a second serving.

Place the heated mixture into a deep bowl where there is already a kilo of minced meat.

In the same container you need to add the bread crumb soaked in milk, taken from two slices of a loaf.

In addition, the mixture should include two raw eggs.

The cutlet base should be salted and peppered. After that, it's time for "that very" ingredient - mustard. Of course, you should use paste-like, not dry. A sufficient amount is 2 teaspoons of mustard.

The kneading of the cutlet base should continue for about a quarter of an hour.

From the resulting mixture, you need to form “washers”, each of which should be covered with breadcrumbs.

After processing such products in a frying pan, you will get incredibly tasty and tender cutlets.
