Notes

UNIQOP’S ADVICE:

You can add ½ cup cooked split chickpeas to the mixture of meat and potato and enjoy Azerbaijani version of the kotlet.
Using a cast-iron made-pan, helps you to consume less oil.
If you let the composition rest in the refrigerator for 2 hours before frying, you can extract a better flavour. This task allows the ingredients to mix much.
If your mixture slated (because of the shred onions) pour out the water before frying.
