Beetroot cutlets are a simple yet exquisite dish of Russian cuisine that combines the soft texture and sweet taste of beets with a crispy crust. Beets, used in Russian cooking for centuries, are rich in vitamins and trace elements, and their vibrant color makes the dish particularly appetizing. The cutlets are made from grated beets formed into small patties, coated in breadcrumbs, and fried until golden brown. They are perfect as a standalone dish or side, especially when paired with sour cream or herbs. The ease of preparation and availability of ingredients make this recipe ideal for those who appreciate the simplicity and benefits of homemade meals.
