Potato cutlets are a cozy dish with a tender texture and rich flavor. Their origin is linked to home cooking traditions, where hostesses aimed to create hearty and simple dishes from available ingredients. In this recipe, the classic potato base is enriched with aromatic sautéed onions and carrots, along with rice that gives the cutlets a special structure. Fried until golden brown, they acquire an appetizing appearance and a crispy texture that contrasts with their softness inside. They are served with sour milk or fresh salad, making the taste more intense and harmonious. Perfect for those who appreciate simplicity but are not willing to sacrifice rich flavor and the cozy atmosphere of home dining.
