Odessa-style fish cutlets are a dish filled with a wealth of flavors and tenderness of texture. It originated in Odessa, a city where fish holds a special place in culinary traditions. Cod fillet, carefully prepared and rolled with a piece of butter inside, gains softness and juiciness. The breading made from flour, egg mixture with milk, and breadcrumbs creates a crispy crust that gives the cutlets an appetizing appearance and rich taste. Fried in oil, they become golden and aromatic. This dish pairs perfectly with fresh vegetables, a light sauce or simply a slice of lemon for zest. Odessa-style fish cutlets not only delight the gastronomic perception but also convey the spirit of the seaside city, its warmth and love for simple yet exquisite dishes.
