In Russian, we call them KOTLETY (cutlets). They used to be standard fare in any student or workman cafeteria. Cheap and fast, they are definitely not cutlets since they are made from ground meat – any meat you can lay your hands on. In reality – in Soviet reality! – there was very little meat in KOTLETY served to students and workers. Mostly, cafeteria cooks used stale bread soaked in water, for volume. Lots of onion, garlic, salt and pepper went in to camouflage dire lack of meat.
