Cutlets are a nutritious and hearty dish that can be eaten all the time. However, during diets or fasts, the consumption of cutlets has to be forgotten. This is a very fatty dish, so it can be dangerous not only for the figure, but also for the heart and stomach. Therefore, it is necessary to eat cutlets in moderation. It
is also advisable to make a meat product on steam. Fried meat with excess oil is harmful to the body, raises blood cholesterol and irritates the intestines. To avoid health problems and still eat cutlets, we can offer a substitute.
Let’s make diet cutlets from oatmeal without meat.
Ingredients for oatmeal cutlets:
- oat flakes – 200 g;
- boiling water – 200 ml;
- potatoes – 250 g;
- garlic – 2 cloves;
- onion – 2 pcs;
- salt – ½ tsp.
Preparation of oatmeal cutlets:
In a bowl with oat flakes you need to pour boiling water, leave to swell for about 15 minutes. At this time it is necessary to peel the potatoes and grind them on large grater sharps. Similarly rub garlic cloves and onions, mix the components with the potato
mass. In the swollen oatmeal we put the vegetable mass, salt and mix thoroughly
.
With wet hands form cutlets from the mixture.
Fry the cutlets on medium heat in plenty of vegetable oil on both sides until browned.
These cutlets are not comparable in taste to meat cutlets. But it is not a bad way to replace a meat dish with something more dietary and budget.
