  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make sorcerers with meat? Prepare the products. Pork is better to take with a layer of fat — the filling will turn out juicier. I had lean pork. Wash the meat and dry it with paper towels. Wash the potatoes well under running water with a brush and dry them.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    The first thing to do is to prepare a meat filling for sorcerers. Cut the pork into small pieces and twist it in a meat grinder. Minced meat, by the way, is easier to make from slightly frozen meat.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Peel one onion and chop it very finely. You can, like me, use a meat grinder to chop onions. Add chopped onion, salt, spices to taste to the minced pork. Mix it well until smooth. Set aside the filling to brew a little.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Now do the test for sorcerers (draniki). Peel the potatoes and grate them on the smallest grater. To save time, potatoes can also be passed through a meat grinder. But in the original recipe from my grandmother there was a grater, such with spikes, which rubs very finely, almost in puree.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Add egg, flour and salt to the potato mass. Knead the dough well. The amount of flour may vary, depending on the consistency of the dough. It should become quite thick, like greasy sour cream.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Pour vegetable oil for frying into a frying pan and heat it over medium heat. Put one tablespoon of potato dough on a hot frying pan. Put one teaspoon with a mound of minced meat on top. Spread the minced meat in a thin layer.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Cover the filling with another spoonful of potato dough.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Fry the sorcerers over low heat for five minutes on each side, until golden brown. You can cover the pan with a lid at the end of frying so that the meat filling is exactly cooked.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    Put ready-made sorcerers with meat on paper towels so that it absorbs excess fat. Serve them to the table hot with sour cream. Salted and pickled vegetables will also come in handy. Bon appetit!

Sorcerers turn out to be very large and satisfying. You can eat one or two pieces. Fans of draniki and cutlets will appreciate this dish, the stuffing inside turns out very juicy.

Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
