Delicate, juicy and diet cutlets! Instead of traditional frying them in oil in a pan, we will steam cutlets. A step-by-step recipe with a photo of steam pork cutlets with semolina. Video recipe.
The taste of meat cutlets is familiar to everyone. The recipe is very popular, and even an inexperienced housewife can cook it. Everyone knows that they are made from minced meat, eggs and spices to their liking. Sometimes they add a loaf, semolina, oatmeal, twisted potatoes, onions, etc. More experienced housewives have their own cooking secrets, which they gladly share. Looking for the perfect steamed burgers? Juicy, aromatic, tender and appetizing? Then write down the step-by-step recipe - today we have steam pork cutlets with semolina instead of bread!
Dry semolina is added instead of bread or loaf, because baked goods will never give the uniformity that semolina gives. The groats swell during cooking, are saturated with meat juices, and the taste is cleaner meat. In addition, with the addition of semolina, the cutlets can be cooked without eggs, because the products keep their shape well, while remaining airy and delicate. It is important for the recipe to choose the "correct" minced meat. Fatty pork is ideally combined with semolina. The ground beef will be dry and you will have to add a little lard to it. Chicken and turkey are good choices when fatty foods are heavy on the stomach. The meat is scrolled in a meat grinder through a wire rack with medium or larger holes. Self-cooked minced meat is a guarantee of delicious cutlets. If you are using a store product, then make sure that it is not too liquid and creamy. Also smell it - the smell should be meaty.
