Instruction manual
1
Take the potatoes, rinse, thoroughly clean from dirt, remove the peel with a sharp knife. Next, cut into small pieces and put in salted water for cooking. When the potatoes are ready, then mash with a wooden rolling pin. Leave the potatoes to cool for a while.
2
Start preparing other ingredients. Rinse the parsley well, chop, transfer to a separate bowl and wait until the parsley gives juice. Grate the cheese on a fine grater and add to the cup with parsley. Cut the ham and fresh onion into small cubes. The finer the ham is sliced, the tastier the cutlets will be.
3
In the mashed potatoes, beat the eggs with a blender, add cheese, parsley and ham, salt and mix well. Leave the minced meat to infuse for 20-30 minutes. Next, pour the breadcrumbs onto a flat surface, distribute by hand. Take some minced meat in the palm of your hand and form a patty. Roll the resulting cutlet in breadcrumbs, put in a preheated pan.
4
Cook the patties under the lid, remembering to periodically turn them over. Do not forget that potato cutlets cook much faster than meat cutlets. Remove the patties from the pan when a dense, crispy crust appears on the surface.
note
Instead of ham, try adding smoked sausage, which will give the cutlets a pleasant aroma.
