Before preparing sorcerers with minced meat, you need to make this very minced meat. We cut the meat and onion into medium pieces, that is, we prepare the ingredients to be sent to the meat grinder.
We skip everything once. For filling it is better to use a nozzle with medium holes.
Beat the egg into the minced meat, sprinkle with coriander, salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly with your hands, passing it through your fingers. Add a tablespoon of sour cream, which will make the mass more tender. Mix well with a spoon and then leave it alone.
Sour cream can be replaced with melted butter. It will have the same effect.
Peel the potatoes and onions, rinse in cold water and cut into medium slices.
We install an attachment with small holes on the meat grinder and send vegetables into it. To prevent the potatoes from darkening, add a spoonful of sour cream.
Take gauze and squeeze out the potatoes in small portions. We don’t pour out the liquid, we will need it later.
It is important here not to overdo it and not to squeeze the potato mass too hard. Otherwise, Belarusian sorcerers, who should be very gentle, will turn out to be harsh.
While we were squeezing the potatoes, starch settled to the bottom of the container with liquid. Carefully drain the juice and add the sediment to the potatoes.
Beat the egg into the potato mixture, add salt and pepper and mix well.
We make sorcerers with our hands. We make a potato cake, add the minced meat filling, cover with the mixture and form a cutlet.
First we make blanks, after which we will proceed to their further processing. We mold carefully, the potato mass is very tender.
Dredge each cutlet in flour.
We send the pieces to fry in vegetable oil over high heat. If we don’t plan to bake it afterwards, then turn the heat to medium.
Fry the sorcerers on all sides until appetizingly browned, as in the photo.
Transfer to a cauldron or cauldron.
Fill with water so that the potato pies are half in the water. Pour over sour cream and place in a cold oven. Sour cream can be replaced with cracklings and fried onions. Turn on the oven at 220°C for 5 minutes to warm up the container. Then reduce the temperature to 180°C and bake for 40 minutes.
When all the water has boiled away and the sour cream is baked, remove the cauldron from the oven.
Appetizing potato sorcerers with juicy minced meat are ready!
Recipe sorcerers with meat:
Peel the raw potatoes and grate them on a fine grater. In some recipes of Belarusian sorcerers, potatoes are boiled “in their skins” in advance, and then peeled and grated. In this case, there is no need to bake fried sorcerers in the future.
To prevent raw potatoes from darkening, first chop the onions to an onion pulp and immediately add them to the grated potatoes, stir so that the potatoes are saturated with onion juice.
Squeeze out the raw potatoes and drain the resulting liquid, leaving a starchy layer (usually it settles to the bottom of the dish) in the potato mixture.
For plasticity, add flour, salt and egg to raw or boiled potatoes.
Prepare minced meat: grind the meat in a meat grinder, add salt, season with black pepper and add finely chopped onion, mix thoroughly with your hands.
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan, form not very thick (0.5 cm), round or oval cakes, place them in the frying pan. Reduce the heat on the stove so that the cakes do not burn while you form the sorcerers.
Make flat cakes of the same shape, but slightly smaller in size, from minced meat, and place them on the potatoes in the center.
Cover the meat with another potato cake, pressing its edges to the first one.
Now the sorcerers with meat can be turned over and fried on the other side until a golden, delicious crust.
When all the sorcerers are fried, transfer them to a baking dish and place in a hot oven (200 degrees) for 20-30 minutes. You can immediately add sour cream to the sorcerer mold, or you can make sour cream sauce separately.
To prepare sour cream sauce for sorcerers, mix sour cream, chopped herbs, garlic squeezed through a press, salt and spices. Stir and transfer to a gravy boat.
Hot, piping hot, crispy sorcerers and with sour cream sauce - it's delicious!
The meat wizards are ready!
Potato sorcerers with minced meat are a traditional dish in Belarus. Prepare from the simplest ingredients.
You can use any minced meat (pork, beef), we used a homemade mixture of pork and chicken.
Minced meat is a traditional filling, but you can use any other one, for example, chicken breast, fish, stewed liver, mushrooms
For those who like a crispy crust, we recommend grating the potatoes on a coarse grater; this not only makes it tastier, but also makes it easier to sculpt. We discovered this method for ourselves when we were making potato pancakes, so you can see how beautiful they areturned out - the taste is cancelled.
But back to our sorcerers, there are two options for sculpting sorcerers:
the first one is by hand
the second - immediately laying it out in layers on the frying pan
We prefer the second one, since our hands are cleaner and there is less fuss.
It is not necessary to cook sorcerers in a frying pan; you can use both an oven and a slow cooker in the “baking” mode for these purposes.
We usually make it in a frying pan, just like our grandmother did when she was a child.
Below is her step-by-step recipe with photos.
