Recipe for juicy beef cutlets in a frying pan
Kitchen appliances: frying pan, knife, cutting board, stove, deep plate, bowl, grater, garlic press, kitchen spatula.
Ingredients
How to cook beef cutlets in a frying pan
- The first step is to place approximately 80-90 g of bread in a deep plate. White or gray bread works great in this recipe. You only need the crumb; you should get rid of the crust. Pour 180-200 ml of milk over the bread. The bread should not float in the milk, it should only absorb the liquid and become completely soaked, after which it should be thoroughly mashed with a fork until mushy.
- Beat 2 chicken eggs into a plate with soaked bread.
- Using a regular fork, thoroughly mix the contents of the plate until a homogeneous mushy mixture is obtained.
- Place 380-400 g of minced beef into a bowl. You can use already prepared purchased minced meat, or you can prepare it from a whole piece of beef. The main thing is not to forget to thoroughly rinse the piece of meat, and also get rid of fatty streaks and films, after which the beef can be put through a meat grinder along with garlic and onions.
- Add the egg mixture from the plate prepared earlier to the bowl with the minced meat.
- With clean hands, thoroughly mix the minced meat with the egg mixture until smooth.
- Place the garlic cloves on cutting board, after which we press them down with the side surface of a knife or an ordinary spoon. After this manipulation, removing the peel from the garlic cloves will be easier than ever. Pass each clove of garlic through a garlic press directly into the bowl of minced meat.
- We peel the husks from the onion, after which we arm ourselves with a grater and grate the onion. You shouldn’t immediately grate the onion into a bowl of minced meat, since a rather liquid mass is formed, and we don’t need too much liquid, so before adding the chopped onion to the minced meat, drain all excess liquid.
- Add the required amount of salt to the bowl with the minced meat, as well as pepper or add your favorite seasonings for meat.
- Again, thoroughly mix all the ingredients in the bowl so that they are evenly distributed in relation to each other. Before frying, the resulting mass must be allowed to brew for about 10-15 minutes, and there is no need to put it in the refrigerator.
- Heat the frying pan over high heat, then pour 45-55 ml of refined vegetable oil into it for frying, then distribute it evenly over the entire surface of the utensil.
- We begin to form cutlets from the resulting mixture. We tear off small pieces of minced meat from the bowl, roll them into medium-sized balls, and then place each of them in a frying pan. If the minced meat turns out to be too liquid, then put it in the pan using a regular tablespoon. In this case, the pan should be very hot so that the minced meat is instantly covered with a crust and does not spread.
- How long should you fry beef cutlets? By and large, you need to navigate by eye, but approximate time frames still exist. Fry the cutlets over medium heat until they turn a whitish-brown color (about 10 minutes), then turn them over to the other side, fry for another 10 minutes and cover the pan with a lid for another 5 minutes.
- Place the finished cutlets on a dish, let them cool for 5 minutes, after which they can be served as a side dish. Bon appetit!

Recipe for beef cutlets in the oven
Cooking time: 55-65 minutes.
Number of servings: 9-10 pieces.
Kitchen appliances: oven, knife, cutting board, bowl, baking sheet, deep plate, 2 flat plates.
Ingredients
How to cook beef cutlets in the oven
- Peel the onion and finely chop it on a cutting board.
- Tear white bread (140-150 g) without crust into small pieces and soak it in milk (80-100 ml).
- Place the prepared minced beef in a bowl, approximately 630-650 g. If you want to prepare the minced meat yourself, do not forget to thoroughly rinse the beef in water, and also get rid of various fatty streaks and films, after which the meat can be put through a meat grinder along with the onion .
- Add soaked bread and chopped onion to the minced meat.
- Beat one chicken egg and add a little salt and pepper to taste.
- Now you need to knead the minced meat thoroughly and mix all the ingredients evenly together. This will take a certain amount of time, approximately 5-10 minutes.
- Now it is advisable to beat the minced meat a little. We simply tear off a medium-sized piece from it and throw it back into the minced meat from a distance of 30 cm. We carry out this procedure for about 5 minutes.
- We divide the minced meat in advance into pieces of a convenient size for you, forming them into blanks for our future cutlets.
- Pour flour (90-100 g) onto a flat plate, add a little salt and pepper to it. Mix them in the flour with a fork.
- Beat a chicken egg into a deep plate, which we also add salt and pepper, then beat until smooth with a fork.
- Pour breadcrumbs into another flat plate, about 90-100 g.
- Let's start breading our minced meat. Each cutlet preparation must be rolled in flour, dipped in beaten egg, and then rolled in breadcrumbs. We carry out this procedure with each minced ball.
- Heat the frying pan over high heat, then pour 45-55 ml of refined vegetable oil into it for frying.
- Place the first batch of our cutlet preparations on a hot frying pan and fry them on both sides for two minutes until golden brown. No oven will give cutlets such a wonderful crispy crust as frying them in a frying pan. But at the same time, cutlets cooked in a frying pan cannot boast of such tenderness and softness as cutlets cooked in the oven. Therefore, we will combine both cooking methods in order to get just the perfect taste and structure of the cutlet. Yes, it is more time-consuming, but believe me, the result is definitely worth it.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
- As soon as all the cutlets are initially fried in a frying pan, place them on a baking sheet and place them in a preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.
- Remove the juicy minced beef cutlets from the oven and place on a plate. Let them cool for about 5 minutes, after which they can be served as a side dish. Bon appetit!
