Pârjoale Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pârjoale

   In a large bowl, combine ground pork, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, bread crumbs, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

2. 2

   Shape and Fry

   Shape the mixture into small patties. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

3. 3

   Make the Mashed Potatoes

   While the patties are cooking, boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and return to the pot. Add butter and milk, then mash until smooth and creamy.

4. 4

   Prepare the Creamy Mushroom Sauce

   In the same pan used for frying the patties, add sliced mushrooms and sauté until browned. Add cream and stir, letting it simmer for a few minutes until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Serve the Pârjoale hot with a generous portion of mashed potatoes, creamy mushroom sauce on top, and sliced pickles on the side.
