Anastasia, great recipe! The cutlets turn out tender and delicious, I love these too!

Can these cutlets be cooked without cottage cheese?

Ekaterina, of course you can

Only then will it be necessary to reconsider the amount of other ingredients.

If you have the opportunity, try it with cottage cheese, it gives such tenderness to the cutlets

The fact is that in Vedic cuisine it is better not to heat cottage cheese))) like sour cream...

Ekaterina, add mashed paneer if cottage cheese is confusing, it is used very often in Vedic cuisine.

Hello! Is it better not to heat cottage cheese? And sour cream? Can I have some information?

Damn, if you don’t heat the cottage cheese, then goodbye cottage cheese cookies, casseroles, lazy dumplings and donuts. And “give asceticism!” of cold, wet cottage cheese on a plate. somehow sad.

I’ll cook cutlets! I found the set of ingredients to be well combined and tasty. Can you cook with frozen cabbage? And how many cutlets do you get from this amount of food?

Viktoriia, good evening =) I got 15 cutlets

I think you can make it from frozen, but you still need to boil it.

But for some reason, after defrosting, cauliflower smells strange to me... so I stopped freezing it. Maybe I'm doing something wrong?

Good :) thanks for the info, I’ll take a double portion.

After defrosting, cauliflower not only smells strange, but also tastes a little bitter after boiling. I recently read that to avoid this, you need to lightly boil it before freezing.

Alas, it is fresh and expensive and there is a question about its naturalness. I also noticed that cabbage sometimes stinks! .:mrgreen: In general, I noticed frozen cabbage has a smell if it is not frozen quickly, if it is in a loose bag and if it is left for a long time (for example, until spring). It also depends on the quality of the freezer. Damn, whose am I all about cabbage, and about cabbage...

Girls, does store-bought cauliflower also smell unpleasant after defrosting? I’ve never bought it before, but I want to make cutlets

Olya, the store doesn’t “smell” to me)))

Thank you Irina for the useful information about freezing

Made it, thank you, delicious and healthy! Especially for children who don’t like cottage cheese.

Question: 100 g of yogurt is somehow a lot, I need 2 tsp. It was enough, but 100 g would have been a mess.

Viktoriia, hello! Glad you liked it

Indeed, in this dish the cottage cheese is well “disguised”

As for yogurt, I had homemade yogurt that was very thick.

It may be true, if the fermented milk mass is liquid in consistency, then you need to add less of it (but then reduce the soda a little)

Good evening! The cutlets spread across the frying pan. The result was flat cakes. Maybe it's because the cottage cheese is homemade?

Marina, good evening! Why have they become such pranksters among you?

I also have homemade cottage cheese, did you have any excess moisture in your cottage cheese?

If you did everything else according to the recipe, then for now I only see this possible reason.

Well, I deviated a little from the recipe, added corn flour instead of wheat, and I didn’t have yogurt, so I replaced it with sour cream. The result is this - there is no delight, well, it doesn’t taste like anything, in my opinion it’s a little sour. Next time I'll try the recipe. Thank you for the interesting idea.

Angelina, I don’t even know, nothing was sour for me

Of course everyone has different tastes, I really like this combination of products

I think kefir should be added at the very end, kneading for the optimal consistency. I added it right away, and it turned out too liquid. I had to add a few more spoons of flour so that the cutlets did not spread. And of course this affected the taste, it was tasty, but more like pancakes .Thanks for the recipe!)

I've prepared it! But there was no delight at all. Firstly, you need twice as much flour so that the cakes don’t fall apart, and secondly, the taste is incomprehensible, somehow tasteless, I wanted to show off to my husband a new and original dish because we adore broccoli, but alas. I think cottage cheese is superfluous here, you can, for example, grate Dutch, I think it will be more interesting and a little piquancy would be nice, garlic for example.

The recipe is wonderful! Thanks for the idea. I made it only from broccoli, since I already had boiled broccoli (500 g) at home and added a little cheese (without animal enzyme). I replaced the yogurt with sour cream, made it from what I had and put less in half. I didn't add flour, but rolled it in. And I added just a tiny bit of asafoetida. Wonderful taste, holds its shape perfectly, my husband is delighted, the taste is rich. Thanks again

Cheers, Lesya!

The cutlets also spread apart despite the fact that I rolled them in flour, although this is not indicated in the recipe... I should have read the comments first, I didn’t think of it. I used store-bought liquid yogurt. It was exactly necessary, as advised above, to first knead the dough, and then bring it to a consistency with yogurt. And I wouldn’t refuse a pinch of asafoetida inside either.

And the recipe is very interesting, the cutlets are very tender, I will experiment.

Olga, experiment! It turns out very tasty.

I don’t really know why they started creeping up among you too...

I’ve made it several times before and it turns out great.

Or rather, it’s clear that the problem is in excess liquid. And where it comes from you have to look: yogurt, cottage cheese or from cauliflower... :(

Just some kind of poltergeist :)

Thanks for the recipe, it turned out very tasty!)))

Luda, to your health!

Very original recipe! Cottage cheese and kefir (replaced yogurt) give a pleasant sourness, semolina makes the cutlets fluffy, and broccoli and cauliflower are a very harmonious, win-win combination! The cutlets turned out delicious! I will cook again!)) Thanks for the recipe!

I would be grateful if you leave a comment:

    Chicken broccoli cutlets

    Chicken broccoli cutlets are a dish that combines two healthy and nutritious components - protein and fiber. These cutlets are suitable for any diet menu.

    It's very simple at home. It should also be noted that such a dish is much cheaper and healthier than a lunch made from a meat product.

    Delicious broccoli cutlets: cooking recipes

    Initially, the dish in question was intended exclusively for baby food. But over time, adults began to actively use it.

    According to culinary experts, broccoli cutlets are very tasty and tender products. Despite the fact that this dish is lean, it saturates not only children’s but also adults’ bodies quite well.

    We will tell you how this unusual lunch is made right now. To implement it we will need:

    • fresh broccoli - about 200 g;
    • potato tubers - 2 pcs.;
    • onions - 1 head;
    • large carrot - 1 tuber;
    • sunflower oil without aroma - 3 large spoons;
    • wheat breadcrumbs - about 2 large spoons;
    • fine table salt - about ½ dessert spoon;
    • chopped black pepper - 3 g;
    • filtered drinking water - about 1.5 l.

    Component preparation process

    Before you prepare lean broccoli cutlets, whose calorie content does not exceed 250 energy units (100 g), you need to prepare the basis for them. To do this, peel the potatoes and then place them in boiling and lightly salted water. As soon as the tubers become soft, they are carefully removed and immediately mashed with a masher (until a homogeneous puree is formed). Next, the broccoli is sent to the same one. It is cooked for about 5-7 minutes.

    After removing the vegetables from the broth, cool them and chop them into medium pieces. Also peel onions and carrots separately. The first product is finely chopped with a knife, and the second is grated on a coarse grater.

    To make lean broccoli cutlets as flavorful as possible, sautéed vegetables must be added to their base. To do this, put onions and carrots in a saucepan and add oil (sunflower). Fry the mentioned ingredients over medium heat until browned and completely soft.

    After all the products have been heat-treated, they are combined together. To do this, add boiled ingredients to fried vegetables, as well as chopped pepper and salt.

    By intensively mixing the products, you obtain a homogeneous and fairly viscous lean minced meat.

    How to shape and fry on the stove?

    Broccoli cutlets are formed exactly the same way as regular meat products. To do this, take about 2 large spoons of minced vegetables in your hands, and then form a ball out of it, which is subsequently slightly flattened. Next, all semi-finished products are rolled one by one in wheat breadcrumbs.

    Broccoli cutlets should be fried in a hot frying pan. A little oil is poured into it, and then some of the products are laid out. They should be fried on both sides until golden brown. As a rule, this does not take much time.

    Serving

    The finished lean broccoli dish should be served hot. As a rule, it is used as a full meal (that is, without a side dish). But if you think that such products are too dry, then you can serve them with some

    Made with broccoli and cauliflower

    If you are not a vegetarian and also do not adhere to Lent, then the products in question can be prepared using chicken breasts. This component will make lunch more satisfying.

    So, to cook with broccoli and cauliflower, you need to purchase the following:


    Preparation of minced meat

    All are meat and prepared in a similar way. First you need to prepare the mixed minced meat. To do this, wash the broccoli thoroughly. At the same time, vegetables are cleaned of all unwanted elements.

    After the mentioned products are prepared, they are placed in salted boiling water and cooked for 5-7 minutes. During this time, the ingredients should become completely soft.

    As for chilled chicken breasts, they are also washed and all inedible veins are cut off. This product should not be pre-boiled.

    It is also necessary to peel large onions separately.

    After all components have been processed, they should be crushed. This is done using a meat grinder. Broccoli and cauliflower, as well as fresh chicken breasts and onions, are passed through this kitchen device.

    Having carried out the described steps, fine salt and allspice are added to the crushed products.

    To ensure that the cutlets are elastic and do not fall apart during heat treatment, a raw chicken egg must be added to the minced meat.

    By intensively mixing the ingredients with your hands, you obtain a homogeneous and very aromatic mass.

    We form products and subject them to heat treatment

    The vegetables should be shaped exactly the same as in the first recipe.

    As soon as all the semi-finished products are ready, they are immediately rolled in breadcrumbs. Next, the products are placed in a hot frying pan with oil and quickly fried on both sides. After the crust appears golden brown, move the cutlets onto a baking sheet, which is immediately placed in a preheated oven.

    At 200 degrees, meat and vegetable products should be baked for 17-20 minutes. During this time they should be fully prepared.

    Serving the dish to the table

    Unlike previous Lenten cutlets, the chicken products in question can be presented to the table along with a side dish of mashed potatoes, boiled pasta or buckwheat porridge. You can also prepare some kind of sauce for the cutlets separately and sprinkle them with herbs.

    As you may have noticed, there is nothing complicated in preparing the broccoli cutlets in question. To get a more original dish, you can add to the minced meat not only those ingredients listed above, but also, for example, fried mushrooms, fresh tomatoes, garlic, herbs, etc.

    Cucumbers are the favorite crop of most gardeners, so they grow in our vegetable beds everywhere. But quite often, inexperienced summer residents have many questions about growing them, and, first of all, in open ground. The fact is that cucumbers are very heat-loving plants, and the agricultural technology of this crop in temperate climate zones has its own characteristics. We will tell you everything you need to know about growing cucumbers in open ground in this article.

    May days delight with warmth and the opportunity to spend more time on the plots. But the long-awaited month of the arrival of stable warmth cannot boast of a balanced lunar calendar. In May, the periods favorable for working only in an ornamental garden or only in a vegetable garden are quite long, and there are quite a few days suitable for any plants. The lunar calendar for May 2019 requires planning and skillful distribution of planting and sowing times.

    Despite the popularity of the popular nickname “bottle palm,” it is very difficult to confuse the genuine hiophorba bottle palm with its relatives. A real indoor giant and quite a rare plant, hyophorba is one of the most elite palm trees. She became famous not only for her special bottle-shaped trunk, but also for her very difficult character. Caring for hyophorba is no more difficult than caring for ordinary indoor palm trees. But the conditions will have to be selected.

    Warm salad with funchose, beef and mushrooms is a delicious dish for the lazy. Funchoza - rice or glass noodles - is one of the easiest to prepare among its pasta relatives. Just pour boiling water over the glass noodles and leave for a few minutes, then drain the water. Funchoza does not stick together and does not need to be watered with oil. I advise you to cut long noodles into smaller pieces with scissors so as not to inadvertently snag the entire portion of noodles in one sitting.

    Surely, many of you have come across this plant, at least as a component of some cosmetic or food products. It is “disguised” under different names: “jujube”, “unabi”, “jujube”, “Chinese date”, but they are all the same plant. This is the name of a crop that has long been grown in China, and was grown as a medicinal plant. From China it was brought to the Mediterranean countries, and from there jujube began to slowly spread throughout the world.

    May chores in the decorative garden are always associated with the need to use every free minute as productively as possible. This month, flower seedlings are planted and seasonal decoration begins. But you shouldn’t forget about shrubs, vines, or trees. Due to the imbalance of the lunar calendar this month, it is better to work with ornamental plants in early and mid-May. But the weather does not always allow you to follow the recommendations.

    Why do people move to the countryside and buy dachas? For a variety of reasons, of course, including practical and material ones. But the main idea is still to be closer to nature. The long-awaited summer season has already begun; a lot of work awaits us in the garden. With this material we want to remind you and ourselves that in order for work to be a joy, you must remember to rest. What could be better than relaxing in the fresh air? Just relax in a furnished corner of your own garden.

    May brings not only long-awaited warmth, but also no less long-awaited opportunities to plant even heat-loving plants in the beds. This month, seedlings begin to be transferred into the soil, and crops reach their peak. While planting and new crops are being planted, it is important not to forget about other important chores. After all, not only the beds need enhanced care, but also the plants in greenhouses and seedlings, which are beginning to be actively hardened off this month. It is important to form plants in time.

    Pie for Easter - a homemade recipe for a simple sponge cake filled with nuts, candied fruits, figs, raisins and other goodies. The white icing that decorates the cake is made from white chocolate and butter, it won't crack, and it tastes like chocolate cream! If you don’t have the time or skills to tinker with yeast dough, then you can prepare this simple holiday baking for the Easter table. I think any novice home pastry chef can master this simple recipe.

    Thyme or thyme? Or maybe thyme or Bogorodskaya grass? Which is correct? And it’s correct in every way, because these names “pass” the same plant, more precisely, one genus of plants from the Lamiaceae family. There are many other popular names associated with the amazing property of this subshrub to release large amounts of aromatic substances. The cultivation of thyme and its use in garden design and cooking will be discussed in this article.

    Favorite Saintpaulias have not only a special appearance, but also a very specific character. Growing this plant bears little resemblance to classical care for indoor crops. And even the relatives of Uzambara violets from among the Gesnerievs require a slightly different approach. Watering is often called the most “strange” point in caring for violets, which prefer non-standard watering to the classical method. But the approach will also have to be changed when it comes to fertilizing.

    Savoy cabbage gratin is a vegetarian recipe for a tasty and healthy meat-free dish that can be prepared during Lent, since no animal products are used in its preparation. Savoy cabbage is a close relative of white cabbage, but it is superior to its “relative” in taste, so dishes with this vegetable always turn out successful. If for some reason you don’t like soy milk, then replace it with plain water.

    Currently, thanks to breeders, more than 2000 varieties of large-fruited garden strawberries have been created. The same one that we usually call “strawberries”. Garden strawberries arose as a result of the hybridization of Chilean and Virginia strawberries. Every year, breeders never tire of surprising us with new varieties of this berry. Selection is aimed at obtaining not only productive varieties that are resistant to diseases and pests, but also those with high taste and transportability.

    Useful, hardy, unpretentious and easy to grow, marigolds are irreplaceable. These summer gardens have long since moved from city flower beds and classic flower beds to original compositions, decorating beds and potted gardens. Marigolds, with their easily recognizable yellow-orange-brown colors and even more inimitable aromas, today can pleasantly surprise with their diversity. Firstly, among marigolds there are both tall and miniature plants.

    The system of protection of fruit and berry plantings is based mainly on the use of pesticides. However, if in the protection of seed orchards pesticides can be used during almost the entire growing season, taking into account the waiting period for each preparation, then in the protection of berry crops they can be used only before the beginning of flowering and after harvesting. In this regard, the question arises of what drugs should be used during this period to suppress pests and pathogens.

    Try to diversify your Lenten menu with these easy, and most importantly, quick-to-cook broccoli and cauliflower cutlets. Just boil the vegetables, grind them in a blender - and half the job is done! In addition, if your little gourmets don’t like broccoli and cauliflower, you can offer them cutlets that are so reminiscent of everyone’s favorite nuggets.
