How to make the perfect minced meat without using a meat grinder: tricks from experienced chefs

If you don't have a meat grinder, you shouldn't give up cooking your favorite dishes, such as cutlets, dumplings, or homemade sausages. There are other methods of grinding meat that are simple and affordable.

UAportal together with ProstoWay have prepared two easy ways for you. They will allow you to make minced meat without any special equipment.

Using a blender

Cut the meat into small pieces, the smaller the better. Put it in a blender. Blend the meat until smooth.

The minced meat obtained in this way will be more liquid than that made with a meat grinder. It is ideal for making cutlets, dumplings, meatballs, as well as for meat sauces and as a filling.

Mince with a knife

Make sure the knife blade is sharp. Cut the meat very finely. This process may take a little longer than using a blender, but you will be pleased with the end result.

To achieve the perfect chop, try using a pair of knives. Alternately, hold one in your hand and use the other to chop the meat on the cutting board. This method produces "chopped" minced meat, which makes delicious chopped cutlets, lulya kebabs, and many other dishes.

This way, you can make the perfect minced meat without the need for a meat grinder.
