Minced meat cutlets with semolina

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   To make cutlets, take pork with a small amount of fat. Cut it into pieces and put it through a meat grinder. Put the finished minced meat in a bowl in which you will cook the cutlet mass.

   Peel the onion from the husk, rinse in cold water and pass through a meat grinder, following the meat. If you like to feel the onion in the cutlets, then you can just chop it finely. Add the chopped onion to the minced meat.

   To taste, add a little salt and spices to the minced meat. Add some chopped greens. Any. I use chopped dill. Mix the whole mass.

5. Step 5:

   

   Knead the minced meat well and beat it several times on the bottom of the bowl. To do this, simply lift it with your hands and throw it into the bowl with force. When beating, the cutlet mass will become more dense and the cutlets will not fall apart during molding. Leave the finished minced meat to lie down for 1 hour. During this time, the semolina will swell a little and absorb excess moisture.
