分步操作

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground pork, grated yellow onion, minced garlic, paprika, black pepper, and salt.

   约 3分钟

   烹饪提示： Ensure all ingredients are well distributed for consistent flavor.

2. 2

   Dissolve the baking soda in the water and add it to the meat mixture. This helps tenderize the patties.

   约 1分钟

   烹饪提示： Do not skip the baking soda, it's key for the traditional texture.

3. 3

   Mix all ingredients thoroughly by hand for about 5 minutes until the mixture is well combined and slightly sticky.

   约 5分钟

   烹饪提示： Overmixing can make the patties tough, but ensure everything is just combined.

4. 4

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.

   约 1小时

   烹饪提示： The longer the rest, the more flavorful and cohesive your patties will be.

5. 5

   Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a flat, round patty, about 1.5 cm thick and 10-12 cm in diameter.

   约 5分钟

   烹饪提示： Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking while forming the patties.

6. 6

   Heat the oil in a large skillet or on a grill pan over medium-high heat.

   约 2分钟

   烹饪提示： If grilling, ensure your grill grates are clean and oiled to prevent sticking.

7. 7

   Cook the pljeskavica patties for 5-7 minutes per side, until deeply browned and cooked through.

   约 14分钟

   烹饪提示： Adjust cooking time based on thickness and desired doneness. The internal temperature should reach 71°C (160°F).

8. 8

   Serve hot, typically in a lepinja (Balkan flatbread) with chopped onions, ajvar, and kajmak.

   烹饪提示： Experiment with your favorite toppings and sauces.
