- — 1 pc. + -
- - 2 tbsp. l. + -
- Allspice - 1-2 peas + -
- - pinch + -
Preparation
Products are indicated for 5 – 6 servings.

- Separately, beat the yolk with flour and cream until the lumps disappear. Stir into the minced meat.
- In another bowl with a few grains of salt, beat the egg whites until stiff. Gently stir it with the minced meat, trying not to damage the texture of the foam.
- Place the mixture in a greased pan, pour melted butter (2 tbsp) on top if desired, and place in the oven. It should already be heated to 200 degrees. Cook for 40 - 45 minutes until the top is browned. Thanks to the oil, the crust will be not only crispy, but also aromatic.
Serve the soufflé hot. Fresh or steamed vegetables are suitable as a side dish.
If you need to prepare a soufflé for children or simply make the baking process less time-consuming, take already cooked meat.
- Twist into minced meat or grind in a food processor 500 g of boiled turkey fillet.
- Separately, beat 2 yolks, 3 tablespoons of full-fat sour cream, 100 ml of low-fat milk and 2 tablespoons of flour. Add everything to the minced meat, add salt and stir.
- In a separate cup, beat the whites and add them to the minced meat.
- We transfer the resulting mass into a mold or take several silicone cupcake molds - this will further reduce the cooking time due to their size. Bake the soufflé in the oven. Enough for 15 - 20 minutes at 190 - 200 degrees.
Before serving, you can sprinkle the soufflé with grated cheese - it will melt and give the dish additional juiciness. Or you can add it just before baking, then we are guaranteed a crispy, fragrant crust!
Ideas for creative housewives
It’s good to add fresh green peas and small broccoli florets to the minced meat of such an “almost ready” soufflé (after all, we made it from boiled meat!). Corn, cauliflower, or small slices of sweet bell pepper, yellow or red, will also work well for brightness. This way the soufflé will look much more attractive when cut, and the vegetables will add lightness!
If we take semi-finished products, defrost them in advance, since there is no need for excess moisture in the minced meat - its excess will make the soufflé watery and increase the cooking time.
Turkey with pistachios
Turkey soufflé with smoked bacon and pistachios should be a very tasty and unusual dish for household members.
