Most often they are made from beef. It is believed that it is from it that the cutlets are more meaty, aromatic, and satisfying. Especially those that were fried in a pan.

But what to do in this case with those carcinogenic substances that appear during heat treatment? After all, you really don’t want to give up the beautiful fried crust, which with its appearance whets such a brutal appetite!

There is an exit. Cutlets can be cooked in the oven. Advantages? Please!

• They turn out no less tasty than in a frying pan. Yes, and there is a golden brown crust.
• They contain significantly less harmful substances than fried ones.
• This type of heat treatment preserves most of the vitamins and microelements beneficial to the body.
• The housewife does not need to be constantly near the stove.
• Fat does not splash in different directions.

But for some reason, sometimes beef cutlets in the oven turn out tough or floating in fat. And incorrectly prepared minced meat is to blame for this.

Beef cutlets in the oven: subtleties of cooking

• For cutlets, you can use any part of the animal carcass. Of course, the most delicious cutlets are made from tenderloin. But most often they use meat that is not suitable for frying steak, fillet, roast beef, entrecote. To prepare minced meat, they use top dressing, brisket, flank, as well as various meat trimmings, which are obtained when stripping meat.
• Beef fillet must be cleaned of coarse tendons and then passed through a meat grinder.
• You should not use too fatty meat for cutlets. When baking, the fat is rendered, and the cutlets turn out tough and dense. If the meat is lean, then internal lard is added to it. The amount of fat should be no more than 15% of the weight of the meat.
• Bread must be added to any cutlets. It must be baked from wheat flour. All the crusts are cut off from the bread, and the crumb is dried. If you put fresh bread into the cutlet mass, the minced meat will turn out viscous.
• The bread is soaked in water or milk before being added to the minced meat. The amount of liquid should not exceed 30% of the weight of the meat. The cutlets will turn out more tender if you add sour cream and mayonnaise to the minced meat and replace the milk with cream.
• Onions, garlic, carrots, potatoes and other vegetables are added to minced beef cutlets. The cutlets will turn out delicious if you add grated young zucchini to the minced meat. But in this case, the amount of liquid (water or milk) needs to be reduced, since the zucchini is very juicy.
• An egg is often added to minced beef cutlets. But you need to know that it makes the finished cutlets dense. When frying in a pan, the egg helps the cutlets not fall apart. When baking in the oven, eggs are not added to the minced meat or only the yolk is used.
• To make beef cutlets golden brown and crispy, they are breaded in flour or white breadcrumbs.

How did the cutlets appear?

It is believed that cutlets were first prepared in France. The first cutlets were not at all similar to their successors and were simply meat baked on the bone. Over time, they began to separate the bone from the fillet and fry it in breading. Then they began to chop the fillets into pieces and make meat balls from this kind of minced meat. And only in Russia, just over a century ago, they began to prepare cutlets in the form in which we are accustomed to seeing them on our tables. Many culinary specialists are inclined to believe that the birthplace of cutlets is the countries of East Asia, which prepared minced meat in their various interpretations. Nevertheless, every housewife needs to learn how to cook cutlets.

Delicious cutlets recipe

The difference between cutlets and other similar dishes is the white bread included in the minced meat. To make the cutlets fluffy and satisfying, you need to take minced meat and bread in equal proportions.

The tenderness of the finished dish is ensured, and for this the finished minced meat must be well “beaten”, i.e. pick it up with your hand and throw it into a bowl for mixing the minced meat.

Ingredients:

• 600 g pork meat
• 0.5 white loaf
• 1 large onion
• 1 egg
• 1 glass of milk
• vegetable oil for greasing the pan
• pepper and salt to taste
• clove of garlic optional.

Cooking method:

1. Soak the loaf in warm milk until completely softened.

2. Cut the meat into portions.

3. Meat, loaf, peeled onion and, if desired, garlic through a meat grinder. Add salt and pepper, add the egg and knead everything thoroughly until a homogeneous consistency is formed.

4. Make small cutlets of the desired shape from the prepared minced meat - oblong or round. Place these unique meat pies on a baking sheet, previously greased with a small amount of vegetable oil.

5. The cutlets are baked in the oven at 220 degrees for about 40 minutes (you can turn them over for 20 minutes on each side).

Another way to cook cutlets in the oven is to fry them lightly in a frying pan so that the minced meat does not fall apart, and then place the cutlets in a cauldron and add a small amount of water. Cover with a lid and simmer in the oven for about 20 minutes. After this, pour sour cream over the cutlets in the cauldron and simmer them under it for another 20 minutes. This will give the cutlets additional softness and tenderness. But you need to eat such cutlets within 24 hours so that the dish does not turn sour under the influence of lactic acid.

When serving, cutlets are often sprinkled with chopped herbs. For the sake of experimentation, chopped greens can be added to the minced meat before starting to prepare the cutlets. The result is a very unusual dish, but extremely aromatic.

Form the minced meat into cutlets, roll them in breadcrumbs and place in a frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil. There is no need to fry the cutlets too much - they just need to set, and they will finish in the oven. However, the breading crust should be quite dense.

While the cutlets are frying, start preparing the gravy. To do this, peel and finely chop the second onion, place it in a separate frying pan (preferably one that can then be used for baking in the oven) with vegetable oil, put on fire and fry until soft. When the onion starts to turn golden, add flour to it. Mix quickly, fry together for just a couple of minutes. Next, quickly pour in warm water, stir thoroughly, add salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the sauce to a boil and remove from heat.

Place the fried cutlets into the resulting onion gravy and place the frying pan in an oven preheated to 170 degrees Celsius. Bake the dish for about 10-15 minutes.

Beat the eggs into the minced meat, add salt and pepper. Mix the mixture thoroughly. Let it sit for a while.

Prepare a baking sheet, cover it with a layer of foil (preferably with sides).

Form the minced meat into cutlets, place them on foil, cover with a second layer of foil.
