Composition / ingredients
Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
How to make steamed turkey cutlets? Prepare the ingredients. For minced meat, you can use any fillet parts of poultry: breasts, thighs, etc. I have parsley from the greens, but dill is also suitable here. Instead of breadcrumbs, you can take white bread soaked in milk. Choose dry spices to suit your taste, you can not put them at all. Wash the egg and dry it with napkins.
Step 2:
Peel potatoes and onions and chop coarsely. Potatoes in minced meat will give the finished cutlets splendor, and onions will add juiciness. Rinse the turkey fillet under running cold water and dry with napkins or a towel. Cut the meat into large pieces.
Step 3:
Fill the breadcrumbs with milk and let them swell a little.
Step 4:
Pass the prepared vegetables and turkey meat through the meat grinder twice. Rinse fresh parsley under running cold water and dry. Chop the parsley and add it to a bowl with minced meat. Add to the minced meat also a broken raw egg, breadcrumbs, salt, ground black pepper and dry spices to taste.
Step 5:
Mix the minced meat very thoroughly so that all the ingredients mix together, the breadcrumbs do not stick together in lumps. Cover the prepared minced meat and put it in the refrigerator for 1-1.5 hours. Cutlets from chilled minced meat will be easier to mold.
Step 6:
Take the cooled minced meat out of the refrigerator and make cutlets out of it with wet hands. Cutlets can be molded from the whole minced meat, cook some at once, and freeze some. Grease the steaming bowl with vegetable oil (to make the cutlets easier to remove), put the prepared cutlets on it.
Step 7:
Cutlets can be cooked in a steamer, on a regular saucepan or in a slow cooker. I cook in a slow cooker. Put the bowl of cutlets in a steamer, cover with a lid and cook the cutlets for about 20-30 minutes until tender. For a slow cooker, I chose the "Cooking" mode by pouring water into a bowl. You can also prepare a side dish at the same time.
Step 8:
Serve ready-made turkey cutlets hot. To garnish, you can offer any dish of cereals, vegetables.
If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt is already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting the dish.
