ReceptnaptárFaširane šnicle (meat patties in tomato sauce)
Faširane šnicle are a favourite of Serbian home cooking: flat, oval meat patties that are browned to a crust and then finished cooking in a thick tomato sauce. They stay juicy in the sauce, and a pinch of sugar and basil round off the tomato. With mash, rice or pasta it makes a filling dinner, and it is good the next day too.

Tips
- Brown the patties only until crusty, because the insides finish cooking in the sauce and stay juicy.
- A mixture of pork and beef is tastier and more tender than a patty made from beef alone.
- Squeeze the bread out thoroughly, because too much moisture can make the meat fall apart in the sauce.
Frequently asked questions
Can it be frozen?
Yes, together in the sauce it keeps for 2-3 months. Reheat gently over a low heat, covered, so the patties do not break up.
What goes best with it?
Mashed potato is best, because it soaks up the tomato sauce well. It is also good with pasta or rice, and you can sprinkle a little grated cheese on top.
