The composition of ingredients of classic cutlets, as a rule, does not change, but experienced housewives and professional chefs always find options that can improve the recipe.

Therefore, it will be possible to find unusual components in the composition.

Yulia Arkhipova, a chef and culinary expert for the online publication BelNovosti, spoke about why they should be used.

What is the essence of introducing additional ingredients?

Using Potato Starch

This is a simple and worthy way to replace chicken eggs in cutlets. Starch binds and holds ingredients together no worse.

However, eggs make the meat dish tougher, while starch, on the contrary, gives a soft and fluffy structure.

As a rule, a large spoon of starch is diluted in two spoons of water and added to the mince. Instead of starch, you can use fresh grated potatoes or even mashed potatoes without milk.

Breadcrumbs

This option is perfect for those who expect to prepare a juicy and fluffy dish. Bread crumbs are an excellent alternative to two components at once.

If you add crumbs, you can forget about adding eggs and bread. You can also use breadcrumbs.
