Units Scale

Ingredients:

  • 6 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and grated
  • 1 raw egg
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram (optional)
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (plus more for coating)

  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the grated hard-boiled eggs, raw egg, chopped onion, parsley, salt, pepper, marjoram (if using), breadcrumbs, and flour.
  2. Mix until a soft, moldable mixture forms. If the mixture is too soft, add a little more breadcrumbs.

  3. Divide the mixture and shape into small oval or round cutlets.
  4. Roll each cutlet in additional breadcrumbs to coat.

  5. Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  6. Fry the cutlets for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and heated through.

  7. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  8. Serve warm with mashed potatoes, sour cream, or a side salad.

Notes

Notes:

  • You can use a food processor to speed up grating the eggs.
  • These cutlets can also be baked at 375°F for 20–25 minutes for a lighter version.
