Ingredients
For the Nugget Mixture:
- 200 grams of minced beef
- 2 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 teaspoon of black pepper
For Coating and Frying:
- Bread crumbs (as needed)
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions
-
Prepare the Nugget Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the minced beef, eggs, all-purpose flour, salt, sugar, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
-
Shape and Steam: Transfer the mixture into a square or rectangular container (using a container with a flat bottom helps in even slicing). Steam the mixture for approximately 15-30 minutes, or until it is fully cooked through.
-
Cut into Nuggets: Once steamed, remove the mixture from the container and let it cool slightly. Cut the beef mixture into nugget-sized pieces according to your preference.
-
Coat the Nuggets: Dip each nugget piece into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat the nuggets thoroughly with bread crumbs.
-
Freeze for Best Results: Place the breaded nuggets on a baking sheet and freeze them for about 10 minutes. This step helps the bread crumbs adhere better and ensures a crispier texture when fried.
-
Fry the Nuggets: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the nuggets in batches until they turn golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Serve: Remove the nuggets from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as they are.
