Steamed cutlets - useful tips and tricks
• No steamer or multicooker? Cooking healthy cutlets can be in a mantovarka, colander or set a suitable sieve on a pot of boiling water. But do not forget to cover the top of the vessel, so as not to lose steam.
• Who said steam meatballs are boring? Try putting some stuffing inside. This may be a salted mushroom or cucumber, a slice of tomato, cheese, ham. Chicken patties sprinkled with sesame or mustard seeds on top look charming. But so that they do not fall, you need to push them into the mass during modeling.
• Bread for minced meat is used only dried. Otherwise, after soaking the pieces will become sticky and sticky, they will spread badly in the total mass, which will adversely affect the final dish.
• If mincemeat is used for meatballs, you can put a piece of butter inside. As it is cooked, it will melt and make the dish more juicy.
