Compound
for 16-17 cutlets
- Minced cod (ready, frozen) - 700-800 g;
- Egg - 1-2 pieces;
- Baton - 1/3 (or semolina 1/3 or 1/2 cup);
- Salt - to taste;
- Dried basil, ground pepper (black or hot) - a pinch each;
- Vegetable oil for frying.
Optional:
- Garlic - 1/2 clove (optional)
- Onion - 1 small or / 2 heads;
- Pork fat - 100 g (grate on a coarse grater).
Ingredients for fish cakes: minced meat, compressed and frozen, bun, salt, basil, egg and garlic.
How to cook
- Minced meat defrost(I transferred it from the freezer to the refrigerator overnight, and in the morning it thawed completely at room temperature for 3 hours). When defrosting, the minced meat should be covered with a lid or a bag so that it does not wind.
- Prepare meatballs: add to minced fish - crumbled pulp of a loaf, 1 egg, spices. If you put it, then grate - onion and frozen lard on a coarse grater, garlic - on a fine grater, and also add to the minced meat. Salt. Mix well. See what the consistency is. If dry, add 1 more egg and/or 1-2 tablespoons of mayonnaise. If the stuffing is damp, add bread crumbs or semolina (they will absorb the excess).
- Form and fry meatballs: Heat oil in a frying pan. Blind cutlets, throwing them from one palm to another. While you are sculpting and kneading them, excess air and water come out of them, the minced meat becomes more plastic, and the cutlets become smoother. Put the cutlets in hot oil and fry over medium heat on both sides (until cooked). You can fry only lightly (just until it sets and a little crust appears), and then put them in a saucepan (the bottom is poured with a little oil and 1/2 cup of water) and simmer over medium heat until almost all the water has evaporated (watch not to burn) . In the variant with frying and subsequent stewing, cutlets will be more delicate and dietary. And cutlets fried until cooked are tastier, they have a crispy crust.

- We cut off the crusts from the loaf, break or cut it into pieces, put it in a bowl and pour about half a glass of warm water. Very often milk is used for these purposes, I think that this makes no sense. We will squeeze the soaked bread, and drain the liquid. We don't need her. In the finished dish, no one will ever feel what the bun was soaked in.

For the preparation of minced fish cutlets, fish that does not have small bones is suitable. It can be sea bass, pike, pike perch, catfish, burbot, chum salmon and cod. The exception is the breeds of sturgeon fish, it is better not to make cutlet mass from them, because the taste of the fish is only getting worse.
How to choose a fish
For cooking cutlets, you can buy live, chilled and frozen fish. Live fish should not be lethargic, having extraneous growths on the body and disturbed scaly cover. Chilled fish is better not to take. A significant part of such fish is thawed by sellers in the back room. Why overpay if you can defrost any fish at home.
A reliable indicator of good quality fish is dents on the carcass, they appear when fresh fish are put into freezing forms directly on board the vessel.
Therefore, the fish is pressed into one another, and it freezes. If there are such specimens in the store, it means that the carcass has never been thawed, because after defrosting all the dents will disappear.
How to make classic minced fish for cutlets
To prepare minced meat, the spinal and costal bones are first removed from the fish, after which the fillet is cut off from the skin. The resulting fish pulp must be chopped into small pieces and passed through a rare grate in a meat grinder, then combine the minced meat with white bread (remove the crusts from it), previously soaked in cool water or milk.
It is necessary to soak stale bread 30 minutes before mixing it with minced fish; it is not recommended to wring it out. Then season the fish mass with salt, pepper to taste, mix and scroll again in a meat grinder with a fine grate.
What can be added for taste
Before the second scrolling through a meat grinder, internal fish oil chopped into fairly small cubes, which can be obtained by cutting oily fish, can be added to minced fish. The taste of cutlets will only improve if the minced meat is supplemented with softened butter or lard.
A special taste is given to fish cutlets by another ingredient - mashed potatoes.
To reduce the viscosity of minced fish, you can put cold pulp of boiled fish in it.

Cod and potato fish cakes
Ingredients:
- 300 g cod fillet (I had a whole fish);
- 400 g potatoes;
- 1 egg;
- 1 large onion;
- 3 art. l. mayonnaise;
- 200 gr. crumbs of fresh white bread (can be replaced with breadcrumbs);
- ground white pepper;
- salt.
Cooking method:
Cut 1/3 of the onion into slices, finely chop the rest. Sprinkle the cod fillets with salt, pepper, onion rings and steam for 15 minutes until the fish becomes matte and crumbles easily. (I cut the fish into pieces, steamed, then peeled and removed the bones). Cool down.
Boil potatoes in their skins, peel and mash until mashed. Add chopped onion, salt, white pepper, mayonnaise to warm potatoes. Mix thoroughly and chill. Remove the bones from the fish and remove the skin, remove the onion. Put the fish in a bag and crush it with a rolling pin.
Add fish to potatoes and mix well.
Sprinkle your hands with flour, form cutlets from the fish and potato mass. Dip them first in beaten egg, then roll in breadcrumbs and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Fry cutlets in hot vegetable oil on both sides until crispy golden brown. Place on a sieve or paper towel to remove excess fat. Garnish with lemon wedges and parsley and serve hot! Enjoy your meal!
