Lenten oat cutlets
I had never made oat patties until my mother shared this recipe. They were surprisingly tasty and filling, just what I wanted during Lent. For this first attempt I served them simply with ketchup and green beans. Next time, and there will be a next time, I will make a mushroom sauce.
From the specified quantity of products, 8 cutlets weighing approximately 65 grams are obtained.
Wash the flakes and add water until they are barely covered. Leave to swell while the remaining ingredients are prepared.
Peel the potatoes and onions.
Grind the onion in a blender or grate on a coarse grater.
Grate the potatoes coarsely.
Add onions and potatoes to oatmeal. Add salt and mix well. At this stage I tried to make cutlets.
The mixture did not hold its shape well at first, so I added a spoonful of flour to keep the patties from falling apart in the pan. The photo shows the difference in consistency.
Form small cutlets. Fry them in a small amount of vegetable oil on both sides until golden brown. The cutlets set quickly and turn over perfectly.
