Anelia's Cutlets

1. 1

   Put the beef, 1 egg and all the spices (garam masala, nutmeg, white and black pepper, cumin and oregano and salt) in a bowl and knead well; if the mixture becomes too watery add some crumbled bread, but be careful not to put too much.

2. 2

   Heat the frying fat in a pan or fryer.

3. 3

   Take from the mixture balls the size of a large walnut (1 in diameter), roll them into sticks and then flatten into ovals approximately 1/5 thick.

4. 4

   Pour the breadcrumbs in a bowl or plate and add some dried oregano or thyme, some black or white pepper (or both) and some nutmeg.

5. 5

   Beat the rest of the eggs in a bowl; you might dilute them with water or milk but I dont do it.

6. 6

   Roll each cutlet in the breadcrumbs, then in the eggs and then again in the breadcrumbs before you put them in the hot oil.

7. 7

   Fry until golden brown then take out and put on absorbing paper for a few minutes to drain the excess fat.

8. 8

   Serve hot or at least warm (although i like them cold too).
