  • “This recipe was delicious, and easy to make! I followed the recipe exactly. I used milk. They were very moist. I served them with mashed potatoes and gravy. Will definitely be making these again and again! Thanks!”

  • “I was pleasantly surprised by how large the cutlets were.They are very generous portions instead of small patties.We found them very mild in flavor with the dill providing a nice hint in the background.The mixture is very soft even after chilling. I cookedat 300 degrees in an electric skillet, turning twice.I thought these would also be good topped with sauteed mushrooms and cheese and served in a bun too.Thank you for sharing your recipe!”
