When frying cutlets, you can find many examples of people making typical mistakes.
The thing is, they can be undercooked or overcooked.
How to calculate the cooking time correctly? There are several tricks that are worth using to cook the perfect cutlets, says Yulia Arkhipova .
Cooking time in a frying pan
When it comes to frying cutlets in a pan, it is important to follow basic guidelines. Typically, cutlets are fried until golden brown on both sides.
For standard medium-sized patties, this takes four to six minutes on each side. If we consider large ones, they must be fried on all four sides.
Cooking in the oven or under the lid
For those who prefer other cooking methods, there are several alternatives. The cutlets can be cooked in the oven at 180 °C.
This usually takes about 10 minutes. They can also be cooked on low heat on the stove, covered with a lid. In this case, they also cook in 10-15 minutes.
What kind of frying oil should I use?
When it comes to choosing an oil for frying cutlets, it is important to consider its smoke point. It is best to fry cutlets in oil with a high smoke point, such as refined sunflower or coconut oil.
If we consider olive oil, it is suitable, but here you should be careful. The thing is that olive oil has a very pronounced taste, which can have negative consequences.
In no case should you use butter that melts quickly, as this may lead to the cutlets simply starting to burn.
Olive oil is also suitable, but it has a more pronounced flavor. It is not recommended to use oil that melts quickly, as the cutlets may burn.
