What dish to cook from meat so that it is tasty and at the same time not very ordinary. For such a case, meat fingers are quite suitable. This dish will decorate any table, and a variety of cooking options will surprise guests more than once. Here are some recipes.
We’ll cook pork meat fingers. We take the pulp, which can be easily cut into layers. Previously, the meat needs to be washed and dried with a towel. Then proceed to slicing. The layers should not be thick. They must be carefully beaten off and, if necessary, salt and sprinkle with pepper. Here you need to take into account the nature of the filling so that the dish is not too salty. Next, you need to prepare the mixture with which we will stuff the meat. We take lard and grind it with a meat grinder. After that we add garlic to it. We also pass it through a meat grinder or squeeze it through a press. Now, pour some salt and pepper.
We take a layer of meat and put the filling on it. We distribute it over the entire piece of meat and turn it into a roll. You can tie it with culinary thread so that it does not turn around in the cooking process. You can just chop the edge with a wooden stick. We spread the meat fingers with the filling on a frying pan, which we preheat with vegetable oil. Fry them on each side until a brown crust is obtained. We spread them in a cauldron or pan, which has a wide bottom. Pour some water and simmer for a while. Before serving, remove the threads.
You can use other recipes. Meat fingers can be prepared with any filling. We take beef as the basis. It is necessary to wash it and be sure to dry it with a towel. Next, cut it into thin plates. Then carefully beat them off so as not to damage.
Now let's get into the filling. We take pork and a little beef and cut all the meat as small as possible. Onions must be peeled and finely chopped. We do the same with garlic. Greens (cilantro, dill, parsley) are also chopped very finely. Mix all the ingredients. It will be a filling for fingers. Salt and any pepper can be added as you wish.
Now put the filling on the layer of meat and turn it into a tube. We chop off a roll with a wooden stick or a toothpick. Next you need to fry the meat fingers on all sides. We put them in a pan and pour in mayonnaise mixed with sour cream in equal proportions. Add a little broth so that the liquid is not very thick. We put the pan on the fire to stew. Serve the dish with mashed potatoes or pasta. We cooked not only meat fingers, but got delicious gravy.
There are other recipes. Meat fingers can be made from minced meat. We need about 500 grams of ground beef. Add to it a fresh chicken egg and a small piece of bread, which is soaked in milk. All components are mixed well. Next, you need to peel one onion, carrot and sweet pepper. Cut these vegetables into small cubes and add to the minced meat. Once again, mix everything well. Now you need to mold meat fingers from the prepared meat. We spread them on a baking sheet, which we lubricate with vegetable oil. To make them juicy, add a little water to the baking sheet. We put it in the oven. Bake your fingers until cooked.
You can also, before you get the dish out of the oven, sprinkle your fingers with grated cheese and leave them there for another two minutes so that the cheese melts. Serve with a side dish.
These are just some recipes. You can cook meat fingers by adding any spices and herbs to the stuffing or stuffing. Be sure to use garlic in the filling. It gives the dish aroma and piquant taste.
