• onion - 1 large head;
• carrots - 1 piece (large);
• rice - 2 level tablespoons;

Cooking process

It’s very simple to prepare rice broth: add meat balls to boiling salted broth, after 7-10 minutes add rice, after another 10 minutes - coarsely chopped onions and carrots, as well as potatoes.

Composition of cutlets from different types of meat

In general, the ratio of BJU in cutlets is presented in the following proportions:

BJU in cutlets

Type of meat	Composition, benefits and harm of individual elements
Beef	Beef contains a large amount of complete protein and iron, due to which the human body is saturated with oxygen, which has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the hematopoietic system. Vitamin B12 helps quickly and fully absorb iron. The type of meat in question contains a lot of collagen, which is one of the “building” materials for interarticular ligaments. High levels of zinc help improve the functioning of the human immune system and strengthen defenses. But beef meat contains cholesterol, which is the cause of the development of cardiovascular pathologies.
Pork	Pork contains large amounts of magnesium and zinc, which are essential for normal heart function. High levels of lysine ensure the formation of bone tissue. Thanks to selenium and arachidonic acid, a person gets rid of depression, and the cells of the body are renewed. However, this type of meat, like beef, contains a lot of cholesterol and is characterized by high levels of histamine. It causes various allergic reactions and inflammatory processes of the skin.
Chicken	Chicken meat has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the nervous system, normalizes cholesterol levels, and saturates the body with vitamins and microelements. Chicken helps reduce stomach acid levels
Mutton	Lamb contains much more iron than other types of meat. Therefore, it is recommended for use by those who suffer from anemia. In addition, meat contains large quantities of vitamins PP, B1, E, B2, B9, B5, B6. Lamb is rich in macroelements such as calcium, potassium, sodium, phosphorus. Fluoride contained in lamb helps fight tooth decay and keeps teeth in good condition.
Turkey	Turkey meat protein is 95% digestible and contains little cholesterol. It contains a lot of potassium and polyunsaturated acids, which has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the cardiovascular system. The level of phosphorus is the same as in fish. Therefore, it is indicated to prevent joint problems. Zinc helps men eliminate sexual problems
Fish	The benefit of fish cutlet lies in the fact that fish contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are not found in other products. These substances lower blood cholesterol levels, which has a beneficial effect on the cardiovascular system. Fish with low fat content helps normalize weight. But there are often cases when salts of heavy metals and toxic substances are found in the tissues and organs of river and sea fish, which contaminate the water in which they live
