Note to the hostess

To make a truly delicious minced meat roll, you need to know a few secrets:

1. Do not buy ready-made minced meat, but make it yourself. You don't need expensive beef tenderloin for it, but the meat from the hind leg, shoulder, neck and brisket will work perfectly.
2. Before putting the pulp into a meat grinder, you need to clean it well - cut off the films, cut out the veins, cartilage and bones. In addition to beef, we recommend using fatty pork pulp for minced meat. Standard option: 1 kg of beef pulp per 0.5 kg of pork.
3. You can choose any degree of grinding of meat, but experienced chefs recommend turning it once in a meat grinder with a middle grid.
4. For 1 kg of pulp, use 2-3 eggs, about 200 g of onions, which must be chopped simultaneously with the meat in a meat grinder.
5. White bread soaked in milk will help make the roll soft. It is important to maintain proportion here. For 1 kg of pulp you need 250 g of white bread, 300 g of milk (for chicken roll, bread crumb and chicken eggs require less). Use yesterday's bread and slightly dried out. Cut off the crusts, chop the crumb into pieces and pour in milk. As soon as the bread swells, knead it well with your hands and combine with the rolled meat. Season the prepared mixture with spices and salt.
6. Cover the container with the prepared minced meat with cling film and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, during which time the bread will absorb the meat juice. Then mix the minced meat again.
7. How you cut the vegetables for the filling depends only on your taste. I like it when the filling turns out homogeneous, then chop it finely. I like it when you can feel individual pieces of vegetables, chop coarsely. We also advise you not to add too much salt to your vegetables. A large amount of salt changes the taste of vegetables not for the better.
