Ingredients

• 500 grams beef (ground)
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 large egg
• 100 grams fresh breadcrumbs
• 50 grams all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 100 milliliters vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well with your hands or a spatula until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 2

Add the egg and milk to the beef mixture and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the meat as this can make the cutlets tough.

Step 3

Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each into a flat oval cutlet about 1 cm thick.

Step 4

Place the flour on a plate, beat the egg in a shallow bowl, and spread the breadcrumbs on another plate.

Step 5

Dredge each cutlet first in flour, shaking off the excess, then dip into the beaten egg, and finally coat with breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.

Step 6

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the cutlets and fry in batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 7

Transfer the cooked cutlets to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 8

Serve hot with your choice of sides such as mashed potatoes, salad, or steamed vegetables.
