Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef (ground)
- 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 large egg
- 100 grams fresh breadcrumbs
- 50 grams all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 100 milliliters vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well with your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the egg and milk to the beef mixture and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat as this can make the cutlets tough.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a flat oval cutlet about 1 cm thick.
Place the flour on a plate, beat the egg in a shallow bowl, and spread the breadcrumbs on another plate.
Dredge each cutlet first in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the beaten egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the cutlets and fry in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan.
Transfer the cooked cutlets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve hot with your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, salad, or steamed vegetables.
