In the modern world, many people take the position of vegetarians. It is difficult for meat-eaters to understand the logic of these individuals. However, the willful refusal of food of animal origin existed quite a long time ago.
An example of the refusal of meat is the priests
.
Religious people give up animal food during Lent. So does vegetarianism have a place in existence?
There are now many products made from soy and other ingredients to replace animal products. In addition, there are many recipes for fasting food, imitating meat food.
We want to tell you about cutlets that can be made without minced
meat
.
Ingredients for oatmeal cutlets:
- oat flakes – 200 g;
- vegetable oil – 10 tbsp;
- water – 210 ml;
- flour – 2 tbsp;
- potatoes – 300 g;
- garlic pepper – ½ tsp;
- onion – 2 pcs;
- paprika – tsp;
- garlic – 2 cloves;
- salt – ½ tsp.
Preparation of oatmeal cutlets:
Water should be boiled, pour boiling water over the oat flakes. While the oatmeal swells, peeled potatoes and onions are chopped on small grater cutters.
To the mixture of potatoes and onions, chop additionally garlic cloves
.
Combine the vegetable mixture with the rolled oats, sprinkle with paprika, salt and garlic pepper.
Manually knead the “stuffing” and beat it
.
With hands soaked in water, form cutlets from the oatmeal mixture. Dip the cutlets on both sides in flour.
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, put the cutlets. Over medium heat fry the cutlets until golden crust on all sides.
Cover the cutlets with a lid, turn down the heat and braise for about 5-7 minutes.
After braising, let the cutlets fry for a couple of minutes, then remove from the pan.
You get vegetarian cutlets, which in Lent can replace your meat original.
