Step 3
Place the pike fillet in a blender, and add the softened bread roll, one egg, and the onion together with the oil it was fried in. Grind all ingredients into a smooth, homogeneous mixture. Instead of a blender, you can use a meat grinder. Add salt, black pepper, and nutmeg.

Step 5
It's better to fry pike cutlets in butter to give them a pleasant creamy flavor and aroma. Fry the cutlets for 1-2 minutes on each side. Place the cooked cutlets on a paper towel to let the excess oil absorb.
