As seasonings, you can just do with ground pepper and dried dill.

Casserole with fish in sour cream sauce

Thanks to sour cream, yesterday's buckwheat will become very soft and juicy during baking. For this casserole, take:

• 400 g sour cream;
• 100 g of cheese;

5. Preheat oven to 250 ° C, place the casserole dish for 15-20 minutes. During this time, the sauce will harden slightly. After that, sprinkle the dish with grated cheese and send it to the oven for another 2 minutes.

Serve the casserole hot.

Buckwheat cutlets with egg filling

Try these burgers for a softer and softer taste than those made with regular minced meat.

You will need:

• 300 g of buckwheat porridge;
• 300 g of prepared minced meat (meat, onions, salt, pepper);
• 3 tbsp. l. vegetable oil;
• 0.5 tbsp. bread crumbs;
• 2 boiled eggs;
• 1-1.5 st. l. sour cream.

Cooking process:

1. Pass the buckwheat porridge through a meat grinder and mix with the minced meat. Finely chop or grate boiled eggs. Pour sour cream into them, lightly salt, stir so that you get a thick mass.
2. Divide the minced meat into 6 parts. Form each part into a large flatbread. Put the eggs with sour cream in the center, lift the edges of the cake and carefully fasten so that there are no gaps.

3. Dip the patties in breadcrumbs, place on a cutting board and leave for 3-4 minutes. Then fry in hot oil over medium heat for 2 minutes on both sides. You do not need to cover the pan.

   

   Buckwheat cutlets can be complicated a little by adding egg filling

The first time, you may not be able to fasten the minced meat over the filling. No big deal: just mix the minced meat with the minced egg and fry like regular cutlets.

Plump pancakes

If you boiled sweet buckwheat with sugar or honey, the next day you can make some dessert from it. For example, air pancakes. For them you will need:

• 2 cups boiled buckwheat;
• 2 eggs;
• 2 tbsp. l. condensed milk;
• 1 tbsp. l. vegetable oil.

Condensed milk is needed in order to impart viscosity to the buckwheat mass. You can use honey if you want, but remember that it loses its beneficial properties when heated.

1. Beat eggs into cold porridge, add condensed milk. Mix everything well.
2. Heat the frying pan, pour in the oil, wait until it starts to boil. Spoon the buckwheat dough. Fry until lightly crusty on one side, turn over to the other.

3. Place the pancakes on a plate and serve while hot, along with sour cream or jam.
