Cutlets after frying come out dry for many reasons.
To understand what you did wrong, you need to find a classic recipe for meatballs and follow it without deviating from the recipe. Then you will understand why the patties are overcooked.
Details
In any case, dry patties can be saved. There are three ways.
The first - cutlets can be stewed. Pour boiling water into the pan and stew the cutlets on low heat for 15-20 minutes. They should become soft.
Of course, it won't be an ideal dish, but at least you can eat the cutlets.
The second method is to stew the cutlets in the sauce. To prepare the sauce, you will need carrots, onions and flour. Mix all the ingredients.
Sauté the vegetables, and then cover with water. The result will be a tomato sauce that softens the cutlets.
If the cutlets remain dry, then you can bake them in the oven.
Put the cutlets on a glass baking dish, cover them with sauce with a mixture of vegetables and greens. You can mix tomato sauce with vegetables or sauté in a pan.
Bake the cutlets for 30-40 minutes in the oven at 170-200 degrees. The meat will soften.
To make the cutlets soft and juicy the next time, avoid the following mistakes:
- Do not add more than one egg to the meatballs.
- Do not add black bread, but better a loaf soaked in milk.
- Beat the minced meat so that it is saturated with oxygen and rises.
- Fry the cutlets, and then stew under the lid.
- Do not over-fry the patties. It is enough to fry them until crispy, and then stew them over low heat.
