Podgorica fritters with basmati rice Suggestion for lunch
Here is another traditional Podgorica dish. It is simple, filling and very tasty.
Preparation steps
- Beat the snicle well with a meat grinder. Beat them only on one side, if there is a little fat at the ends, remove it or cut it with a knife so that the snicla spreads well.
- We put a spoonful of kajmak on each steak (there are variants of this recipe in which some of the harder cheeses go instead of kajmak), order thinly sliced prosciutto and roll it finely.
- We dip the rolled fritters first in flour, then in beaten egg and finally in breadcrumbs, fry in hot oil, not too hot, so that they don't burn, turn them several times with a fork, so that they are evenly fried on each side.
- Drain the fried fritters on a napkin, transfer to a serving plate and pour mayonnaise or tartar sauce on top.
- Basmati rice is cooked in salted water, in the usual way. Drain, add sour cream and parmesan, mix well, fill with silicone muffin tins or some other and place briefly in a warm oven.
- If desired, sprinkle the rice with chives.

Serving
Serve some fine soup first, and for a salad I suggest a classic cabbage salad. Of course, homemade bread is a special treat on the table. Pleasant!
