If you want to get an excellent dish, then it is better to prepare the minced meat yourself.

It is advisable to pass the meat through a meat grinder several times.

You also need to add bread to the minced meat, which must first be softened in water and also passed through a meat grinder.

If desired, this component can be easily replaced with semolina.

It is important not to overdo it. For one kilogram of minced meat, it is enough to take only one tablespoon of the additional ingredient.

Many people are used to adding eggs when cooking cutlets. But it is worth noting that this product makes the dish tougher.

If cutlets are prepared from meat or poultry, then it is permissible to use only one yolk per 300 g of meat preparation.

The cutlets will be softer and juicier if you add cold butter to the minced meat.

In addition, you need to use breading that will keep the juice inside. Not only breadcrumbs are suitable for this, but chefs also recommend paying attention to cubes of white bread, oatmeal and semolina.
