Mix the minced meat with onion, add salt, dill, lemon balm and rice flour. Rice flour is added for viscosity of the cutlets. If you don’t have ready-made flour, you can grind washed and dried rice. You need to grind the rice very finely to get exactly flour. I added 3 heaping tablespoons, but you can vary the consistency.

The result is this minced meat. You need to cover it with film and put it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

To form the cutlets, take about a tablespoon of minced meat, roll it first between your palms, and then along the board. These are the dense sausages you get.

The cutlets are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Bon appetit!

How to cook with photos step by step





Let's prepare everything for preparing minced meat. Cut the lean pork into small pieces, peel the onion, cut it into two or four parts, take a cube of frozen greens from the freezer (it will be put through a meat grinder along with the meat). Cut a thick slice of white loaf and soak it in water.
Grind the meat, onion, and frozen herb cubes. Let's pass the bread in last, lightly squeezing it out of the water.




Season the minced meat with spices to your taste. The recipe contains black pepper and paprika, you can choose any other combination. Salt the minced meat; half a teaspoon is enough for this amount.




Add one egg. You can beat it first with a whisk and then pour it into the chopped products.






Mix the minced meat with a spoon and leave for a few minutes. Then be sure to knead with your hands so that the cutlet mass becomes homogeneous.




We don’t just mix the minced meat, but lightly beat it. We pick it up in the palm of our hand and throw it back into the bowl with a little effort. After two to three minutes, the minced meat will become uniform in both consistency and color. If it is poorly kneaded or not beaten, the cutlets inside and outside will be spotty with light and greenish areas. Accordingly, the taste of the cutlets will be different.




Dip your palms into cool water, scoop up some minced meat and form round or oval cutlets.






Heat the vegetable oil, pouring enough to cover the bottom by 1-1.5 cm. Place the meat pieces at a short distance from one another. Adjust the heat under the frying pan to medium intensity. Fry the cutlets on one side until a light brown crust forms.




We pry it with a spatula or one fork, and hold it with the other and turn the cutlets onto the other side. Let's brown it. After frying, you can put them in a casserole, pour in a little water and simmer over low heat for several minutes. The cutlets will become soft and fluffy, but the crust will no longer be crispy.
