Preparation: Step 1
-
Prepare the necessary ingredients for the preparation of juicy pork cutlets.
It is best to use meat with small livers of fat, for example, a pork blade or neck. These parts contain the right amount of fat and meat, which makes the cutlets soft and juicy. I add about 100 g of fat per kilogram of meat, it does not matter fresh or salty. The fat should be soft, not hard.
-
Step 2
Cut the bread into small pieces. Move into a deep bowl. Pour cold water. Leave for a while for swelling. You can use any bakery products: a roll, bread, a loaf, a baguette, dried bread or fresh. I use homemade bread. I don’t cut the crust, as I will grind in a meat grinder. Periodically, I recommend mixing bread pieces so that they are evenly moistened and swollen.

Step 3
Clean onions and garlic. Cut one onion (150 g) in small cubes, cut the second onion (100 g) into larger pieces. Leave the garlic in general.
-
Step 4
Heat a small amount of oil (15-20 ml) in a pan. Add onions chopped with small cubes. Fry over medium heat until soft and light golden color, about 4-5 minutes. Do not forget to stir so that the ray does not burn. Cool fried onions to room temperature.
When the onion is fried, it emits moisture, is caramelized and becomes soft and sweet. In combination with meat, it helps to preserve juiciness and adds an additional aroma. In addition, fried onions make cutlets more tender, since onion pieces not only moisturize the meat, but also give it a light sweet, which contrasts perfectly with the rich taste of pork.

Step 5
Pork, I have a shoulder blade, rinse well. Dry with a paper towel from excess moisture. Cut in medium pieces. Cut the fat with the same pieces. Pre -remove the skin.
-
Step 6
Skip pork, lard, onion, garlic, swollen bread along with the remaining water through a meat grinder.
-
Step 7
Turn all crushed ingredients to a comfortable deep dish. Add fried onion, ground coriander, salt and ground black pepper to the minced meat. Additionally, you can add your favorite spices for meat.

Step 8
Mix the minced meat well with spices and fried onions. At this stage, after thorough mixing, I recommend that you beat off the minced meat. I raise the minced meat with my hands and throw it back into the bowl, that’s why you need to take deep dishes. I repeat the fight back 8-10 times. The minced meat becomes denser and is kept together. Cover with cling film. Leave at room temperature for 1.5-2 hours for ripening. If you keep the minced meat longer, then you need to send it to the refrigerator.
-
Step 9
Divide the minced meat into portioned pieces. I make small blanks weighing 50 g each. If necessary, the hand can be moistened with a small amount of water.
-
Step 10
From each meat piece to form a blank of the desired shape. Dip in a bowl with breadcrumbs and sprinkle from all sides. I recommend excess breadcrumbs so that it does not burn during frying.
-
Step 11
Do this with all the meat bunks. I got as many as 32 pork cutlets.
At this step, the semi -finished product can be sent to the freezer and frozen. After freezing, packing portions into special packages for freezing and store in the freezer up to 3 months. They do not need to be thawed before frying — you can immediately cook from frozen ones, only fry a little longer.

Step 12
Prepare a deep pan for frying juicy pork cutlets.
Heat vegetable oil in it. Put the blanks. Fry pork cutlets in a pan for 4-5 minutes on each side over medium heat.
The frying time depends on the thickness of the workpieces and the intensity of fire. If the cutlets are large and thick, they can be covered with a lid in the process of frying so that they faster faster inside, without burning outside.
It is important not to overload the cutlets. To make sure they are ready inside, you can make a small incision in the thickness of the thick part. If the meat inside is pink, then the cutlet is not yet ready. In this case, it is better to continue the frying, reducing the fire so that the meat warms up evenly.

Step 13
Put the fried pork cutlets on a paper towel to remove the rest of the oil.
