Meat patties are a classic dish of Russian cuisine, loved by many generations. Their history goes back to the traditions of home cooking, where simple and accessible ingredients turn into true culinary masterpieces. Juicy, aromatic patties made from pork and beef, with the addition of onions, herbs, and soaked bread crumbs acquire a tender texture and rich flavor. Spices like salt and black pepper complement the meat base, highlighting its natural depth. The patties are fried to a golden crust, creating an appetizing contrast between the crispy shell and soft, juicy center. They are served with vegetables, making the dish balanced and nutritious. These patties symbolize home comfort and a warm family atmosphere, perfect for everyday or festive tables.
