  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make meat zrazy with cheese? Prepare the ingredients. Minced meat for this dish is better to use a mixture of pork and beef, then the zrazy will be even tastier and juicier. If desired, you can add bread soaked in milk to the minced meat, but zrazy turns out much tastier if you cook them exclusively from meat without various additives, not counting cheese filling. Boil one hard-boiled egg.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Peel the onion from the husk and cut into halves or quarters. Remove the peduncle. Scroll the meat with onions through the meat grinder. You can do this twice to make the minced meat more tender.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Wash the egg and dry it with napkins. Beat a raw egg into the minced meat. Add spices to taste: salt and ground black pepper. Mix the minced meat with a spoon so that the egg is evenly distributed throughout the mass.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Prepare the filling. Grate the hard cheese on a medium grater.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Chop the boiled yolk with a knife and add it to the grated cheese. Chop the washed and dried greens finely. Add the greens to the filling and mix.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Start forming zrazy. Pour the wheat flour on a flat plate. Take a little minced meat with your hand, make a flatbread out of it. Put the cheese filling in the middle of each tortilla. Carefully fasten the edges of the zraza so that the filling does not fall out.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Form a small round patty. Roll all the zrazy in flour.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan with a thick bottom. Put the cooked cutlets on it. Fry the zrazy on one side until browned, turn over to the other side and fry also until browned.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Reduce the heat to medium, cover the pan with a lid. And fry the zrazy under the lid for about 10-20 minutes (be guided by your stove). It is the observance of this principle of frying that makes the zrazy especially juicy inside. Since the formation of a crust does not allow the juices to come out. Remove the patty pan from the heat. Transfer the finished zrazy to a platter. And serve hot. Bon appetit!

Note that the quality and taste of the finished dish largely depends on the proper defrosting of the ingredients. How to avoid mistakes and choose the best way, read the article about defrosting.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.

Important! An incorrectly selected frying pan can ruin even the best recipe. All the details on how to choose the perfect frying pan for different dishes read here .
