How to cook Turkey cutlets with zucchini

Step 1

Prepare minced meat for cutlets. Wash the zucchini. If the peel is rough, peel it. Grate the zucchini on a fine grater, then lightly salt and transfer to a colander. Leave for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Wash the minced turkey fillet and pat dry with paper towels. Coarsely chop and pass through a meat grinder with a medium rack into a large bowl.

Step 3

Peel the onion and chop very finely. Rinse the parsley under running water, then pat dry on paper towels. Strip the leaves from the branches and chop finely.

Step 4

Put the parsley and onion in a bowl with the turkey fillet passed through the meat grinder. Add breadcrumbs and soft butter. Salt, pepper and knead thoroughly.

Step 5

Squeeze the grated zucchini with your hands to remove excess liquid. Add to ground turkey. Mix thoroughly again. You can add a little more salt and pepper.

Step 6

Form cutlets from the resulting minced meat. Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan. Fry cutlets on both sides until golden brown. Serve immediately.
