Afterwards, soak it in milk or water. Other ingredients can also add juiciness to the dish.

For this, you can use potatoes, zucchini, carrots or other vegetables. Instead of bread, you can add semolina to the mince.

When preparing cutlets, it is also important not to get carried away with onions. A large amount of this ingredient can spoil the taste of the dish.

Moreover, experienced housewives use fried onions for cutlets. For a kilogram of minced meat you will need about 200 or 300 grams.
