I caught an interesting recipe, of course, and tried it out. Only replaced the meat filling with fish. Everyone has their own addictions.
Ingredients: bulgur or couscous, bread crumbs, paprika, cumin, nutmeg, salt, vegetable oil, water, Filling:, minced fish, medium onions, Seasoning, salt, oil for frying, dill
Cooking method:
Put all the ingredients for the casserole in a bowl. If you have bulgur, then the base will be slightly grainy, warm water is used and at the end of the batch you can chop with a blender. Couscous is much finer, water can be taken cold and after mixing, the base will have a slightly plasticine structure. Cover with a lid and leave for an hour.
Finely chop the onion and fry it in odorless oil until soft, add the minced meat and continue to fry for 5 minutes, not forgetting to stir. Add salt and spices, evaporate excess liquid. Cool the filling and add the herbs. I, so that the fishy taste began to play, added 1 tbsp. l. shrimp paste and 100 ml of coconut milk. I did not put this recommendation in the recipe because it is very individual.
In a dish greased with butter and sprinkled with breadcrumbs, spread half of the mass for the casserole and lightly compact. Next, put the filling, level and cover with the rest of the mixture. Smooth the surface and cut into portions. In the middle of each piece, make a hole with a wooden stick to the filling. Prepare your favorite vegetable oil, pour it into the hole and lubricate the surface.
Preheat the oven to 180 °, sprinkle with sesame seeds on the casserole. We bake for 40 minutes. We cut it into portions and you can eat it. But it also goes well and chilled. Delicious with your favorite sauce. Bon Appetit!
