Recently, the multicooker has become an almost obligatory companion of many housewives. Almost any dish is cooked with it - from soups to baking. Even in the preparation of prose cutlets, it has clear advantages over the usual frying in the pan. Non-stick coating does not burn, and high walls do not allow splashing of fat.
Fishcakes roasted in a slow cooker are guaranteed to be ruddy and juicy, and steamed - tender and dense.
Complicating the process is only fish fillets, but this can be avoided. You can search the stores for frozen fish fillets, for sale and ready minced fish. If you take a deliberately quality semi-finished product, it will not differ in quality from home minced fish.
Fish cutlets in a slow cooker - general principles of cooking
• Cooking meatballs in a slow cooker, or, more precisely, roasting, is almost the same, and even simpler than the usual way - frying in a pan. Steaming is also an uncomplicated process and does not imply special skills.
• The following programs are suitable for frying fish cakes in a multicooker: “Frying”, “Baking”, “Multipovar”, “Stewing”. To make steam cutlets, it must have the mode “Steam” or “Steaming”.
• Minced fish cutlets can be prepared from almost any kind of fish, the best is to get ready-made fillets for this purpose. Otherwise, the carcass will have to be chopped by yourself, and this is not such a simple procedure, especially if the fish is bony. It will be necessary to extract all the bones so that they do not fall into the cutlets. You can also use ready-made minced meat, but in this case you need to take a semi-finished product of proven brands.
• The quality of fish cakes directly depends on properly cooked minced meat. It is necessary to strictly observe the proportions of the products, given the type of fish from which it is prepared. Dry fish requires the addition of lard, bread and more onions.
• Minced fish thoroughly and knead for a long time to get tender burgers. For steaming, it is better to interrupt fish with a blender. From such fish mass, steam products are obtained not only more magnificently, but they also keep their shape noticeably better. • Before frying, fish patties must be breaded and lowered for roasting only in well-heated vegetable oil in the cooking bowl. Because of this, they quickly become golden brown, and from the inside they remain juicy.
• Steam patties should not be paned. The breading will soften under the influence of steam, and will resemble a raw dough.
• Fishcakes are not capricious to the side dish, can be served with almost anyone. Mashed potatoes and boiled rice are the most popular.

Technological tips for cooking fish cutlets in a slow cooker
• Instead of cheese, you can hide a little butter in the middle of fish cutlets. It will make them juicier and more tender.
• Self-separated fillet, after scrolling in a meat grinder or immediately, whisk in a blender. If there is no such device, grind it again with a meat grinder using a fine mesh.
• Try to use white breadcrumbs for breading and, preferably, not finely ground. Roll the patties, making sure the breading is laid evenly and completely covers them. This will prevent leakage of juice from the inside and increase their juiciness.
