Latvian Meatloaf Patties
Kotletes
Savory, tender patties made from a mixture of ground pork and beef, seasoned and often pan-fried or baked. They resemble small meatloaves or large meatballs.
🧂 सामग्री
- 500 g Ground pork
- 500 g Ground beef
- 2 large White bread slices(stale, crusts removed)
- 100 ml Milk (or water)(for soaking bread)
- 1 medium Onion(finely chopped or grated)
- 1 large Egg(lightly beaten)
- 50 g Breadcrumbs(plus more for coating (optional))
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 tbsp Oil (for frying)
👨🍳 निर्देश
- 1
Soak the bread slices in milk (or water) for about 10 minutes until soft. Squeeze out excess liquid.
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the ground pork, ground beef, soaked bread, finely chopped or grated onion, beaten egg, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are well incorporated.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Do not overmix, as this can make the kotletes tough. - 3
Form the mixture into oval-shaped patties, about 1.5-2 cm (0.6-0.8 inches) thick. If desired, lightly coat the patties in extra breadcrumbs.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the kotletes in the hot oil and brown them on both sides, about 4 minutes per side.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Ensure the pan is hot before adding the patties to prevent sticking. - 5
Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until the kotletes are cooked through and no longer pink inside.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Alternatively, after browning, you can transfer the kotletes to a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes. - 6
Serve hot, often with mashed potatoes, boiled potatoes, or a side salad.
💡 पेशेवर सुझाव
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can add finely chopped sautéed onions or a pinch of marjoram to the meat mixture.
- ✓Using a mix of pork and beef provides a good balance of flavor and tenderness.
- ✓If your meat is very lean, adding a tablespoon of sour cream can help keep the kotletes moist.
