Pike cutlets

How to cook tender pike diet cutlets? Very simple. They are prepared quite simply, and the result exceeds all expectations. Pike cutlets are perfect for any meal.

Ingredients

• Pike fillet - 900 gram
• Onions - 1 Piece
• Butter - 2 Tbsp. spoons
• Loaf of white bread - 100 Grams
• Milk - 0.5 cups
• Cream 20% - 0.5 Cups
• Egg white - 1 Piece
• Salt - 1.5 Teaspoons

Directions

1. We wash the pike from mucus and cut into fillets. Cut off the head, tail and fins, leave them on the ear (the gills must be removed). We cut the carcass along the belly and carefully clean it from the insides, we also tear off the film along the ridge.
2. Then from the tail along the back we cut along the ridge into 2 parts. Cut out the ridge and long bones on the abdomen. We will have two pieces of file with skin. Then we put each half of the pike on the board and scrape off all the flesh with a spoon. We do not pay attention to small bones, the main thing is that scales do not come across.
3. We make minced meat. Chop the onions and fry in butter until soft and golden. Cut the loaf into medium pieces and dry in the oven, so it absorbs moisture better and will not be sticky. Pour milk and let stand for a while. Scroll fillet, onion and loaf with milk in a meat grinder.
4. And then again all together to finally crush small bones and make the mass more homogeneous. Now you need to beat the minced meat a little, but do not overdo it, otherwise it will become too elastic. In the process, gradually add the cream. Beat the protein into a strong foam. Add salt and white pepper to the minced meat (white pepper goes very well with fish).
5. And then carefully stir in the whipped white. In general, the recipe for making pike cutlets does not always include eggs, but then I decided to add them, because beaten egg white will add splendor and tenderness to our cutlets.
6. Once again, let's beat it off a bit. Minced meat is ready, now you can sculpt cutlets from it. We form cutlets, hands in the process can be moistened with warm water.
7. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the patties over medium heat on both sides until golden brown, and then bring them to readiness in the oven at 170 degrees for about 15-20 minutes. Cutlets can be served on a pillow of creamy sauce, garnished with herbs and vegetables. You can serve mashed potatoes as a side dish.
