Ingredients:

• ground meat (chicken or mixed) — 500 g;
• sour apple — 1;
• onion — 1;
• egg — 1;
• semolina — 2–3 tbsp;
• milk or water — 50 ml;
• salt, black pepper — to taste;
• oil — for frying.

Instructions

Pour warm milk or water over the semolina and let it soak for a few minutes until it swells.

Finely chop the onion and grate the apple — it will make the patties tender and juicy.

In a large bowl, mix the ground meat, apple, onion, egg, soaked semolina, salt, and pepper. Knead well — the mixture should be soft and slightly moist.      

Heat oil in a frying pan. Spoon the mixture directly onto the pan, shaping the patties without forming them by hand. Fry on both sides until golden, then cover with a lid and cook on low heat until done.
