Homemade Meat Patties

Homemade Meat Patties

Juicy homemade patties made from mixed ground meat with a golden crust. The secret to juiciness is bread soaked in milk and well-beaten ground meat.

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Soak the bread in milk for 5 minutes. Mince the onion and garlic (you can put them through a meat grinder together with the bread).
  2. Combine the ground meat with the onion, garlic, squeezed-out bread, and egg. Add salt and pepper, mix thoroughly, then beat the mixture against the bowl for 1–2 minutes — this will make the patties fluffy.
  3. Shape oval patties with wet hands and coat them in breadcrumbs.
  4. Fry in heated oil for 4–5 minutes on each side until golden brown, then reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and cook for another 5 minutes until done.
