Description
Patties with minced meat of Ukrainian-Belarusian origin, in which buckwheat plays the same role as breadcrumbs in regular patties. That is, it both lightens the filling, preventing the patties from becoming a dense clump, and adds fluffiness. It's essential to add butter to the cooked buckwheat to give the patties creaminess and tenderness. This recipe can be endlessly adapted: for example, traditional 'kebab' spices like cumin and coriander work well here, adding a meaty aroma to the dishes.
