How to cook cottage cheese chicken patties
Step 1. Prepare all the ingredients. Minced meat should be homogeneous – it should have no bones, cartilage and tendons, it should not have the smell of spices that can be added to disguise a low-quality product. Cottage cheese should be dry enough not to add excess moisture to the cutlets.
Step 2. Transfer cottage cheese to a bowl with minced meat, grate cheese, add finely chopped garlic and semolina — season with pepper and salt, Herbes de Provence Blend. Knead the minced meat until it is entirely homogeneous.
Step 3. Make rissoles. If the minced meat turns out to be too tough, it can be diluted with milk to the desired consistency.
Step 4. Bread cutlets in breadcrumbs.
Step 5. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Place the cutlets in it. Fry the cutlets on both sides. On average, it takes 5-7 minutes.
