Ingredients: 2 slices good-quality white bread, crusts removed; 1/4 cup half-and-half; 1 lb ground turkey; 1 egg; 1/2 teaspoon salt; 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper; 1/2 teaspoon dried dill; 5 tablespoons butter, 3 of them at room temperature; 1 cup dry breadcrumbs; 2 tablespoons cooking oil

Servings: persons

2 slices good-quality white bread, crusts removed
1/4 cup half-and-half
1 lb ground turkey
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
5 tablespoons butter, 3 of them at room temperature
1 cup dry breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons cooking oil

1
Break the bread into pieces. In a large bowl, soak the bread in the half-and-half until the liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Mix in the turkey, egg, salt, pepper, dill, and the 3 tablespoons room-temperature butter. Put in the freezer for about 10 minutes to firm up.
2
Remove the turkey mixture from the freezer; it will still be very soft. Form the mixture into four oval cutlets and coat them with the bread crumbs.
3
In a large, nonstick frying pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the oil over moderate heat. Cook the cutlets until golden brown and just done, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Sauteed mushrooms are the traditional Russian accompaniment to turkey cutlets. Beets, glazed carrots, and mashed potatoes are other excellent possibilities.
