Fish cutlets are a very tasty dish.

But it has a serious drawback: the dish usually lacks juiciness and tenderness.

However, the problem is easy to solve. It is enough to use an additional ingredient.

Many gourmets add lard to the minced meat for fish cutlets.

The specialist recommends using an unexpected additive that will not only improve the consistency of fish cakes, but also make the dish much more appetizing.

Miracle additive for fish cutlets

It turns out that you can safely add... sausage cheese to the base of the dish.

Thanks to this ingredient, the cutlets will become much more juicy and tender.

In addition, some rather interesting flavors will appear: creamy and smoked.

This way, the dish will lose its dryness and will turn into a real culinary masterpiece without adding lard, which not all gourmets like.

An important point: you need to maintain the correct ratio of ingredients.

Thus, the cheese component should make up at least 10 percent of the total weight of the cutlet base.
