Many people like cutlets as a basic meat treat that we are used to preparing on a regular basis.

However, it is worth understanding that this dish is very far from the standards of healthy eating.

If you eat classic cutlets every day or several times a week, you can undermine your health.

That's why chef Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on cooking for the online publication BelNovosti, advises learning how to make a dish healthier.

What 3 rules will help with this?

Oatmeal instead of bread

Bread gives the dish the necessary level of juiciness and a certain fluffiness, but classic buns and white bread are harmful to your figure and health.

Therefore, it is worth replacing them with oatmeal.

Frying in good oil

It is important to remember that regular refined sunflower seed oil can be harmful. Therefore, it is best to choose olive oil for frying.

However, there is a nuance here: only refined products are suitable for such heat treatment.

Vegetables

It is better to "dilute" the minced meat with any vegetables that are at hand. Peeled tomatoes, potatoes, zucchini, carrots, and pumpkin are excellent for cutlets.
