How to cook fish tails cutlets

Fish fillet - 500 g
Hard cheese - 100 g
Bulb onions - 1 pc.
Salt to taste
Black pepper - to taste
Spices to taste for fish
Egg - 2 pcs.
Flour - 100 g approximately
Milk - 100 g approximately
Greens - a handful (s) of parsley
Bread crumbs - 2 tbsp

Preparation: Step 1

These cones can be found in supermarkets in the biscuit or bakery areas. They cost a penny, but the dish is transformed beyond recognition. In addition to fish filling, you can make cutlets with minced meat in such horns.

Any white fish fillet is suitable for this recipe, I used silver carp fillet.

We clean the fillets from the skin and check for bones. Cut the fish into small cubes or just finely chop it.

Rub the cheese on a coarse grater, chop the herbs. Instead of parsley, if desired, you can use dill herbs or mix several types of herbs to taste.
Finely chop the onion and fry it in vegetable oil until transparent. Care must be taken to ensure that the onion is not overcooked.

Let the onion cool slightly. I tried these cutlets with the addition of raw onions, but I like fried ones much more.
In a bowl with a whiskBeat the egg lightly, add a little milk and flour, season with salt and spices to taste. You should get a thick batter that will stick well to the waffle cone. If necessary, add a little milk or flour.
In a bowl, mix grated cheese, chopped fish, herbs, 1 egg. Season to taste with salt, pepper and spices. I used a ready-made fish spice mix. Add onion and bread crumbs. Mix the filling well.
Fill the waffle cones with the filling with a spoon, compacting the mass tightly. There should not be large voids, but it is not worth overfilling the "top" horn either. The excess filling will fall out during frying and will burn.

While we are filling the last horns, the first ones have already become a little softer and more pliable, the filling has softened the horn a little.
Let's dip the filledstuffing the horns in batter. It is convenient for me to do this with clean fingers, they still strive to fall off the fork. The batter may become thicker over time. You can add a spoonful of milk and stir it well again.
Fry the horns in vegetable oil until golden brown on all sides. I first fry on both sides, and then put them on the barrels for a couple of seconds. When fried, they take on the appearance of fried fish tails.
We transfer our "fish tails" to the baking dish. I put them on the barrels quite tightly so that they all fit.

Cover with foil and bake at 180 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Sprinkle with herbs and serve. Best served with mashed potatoes.
