Meat hedgehogs on an onion bed in a frying pan

Fun prickly cutlets for children and their parents! These meat hedgehogs on an onion bed in a frying pan are not called “hedgehogs” for nothing. Due to the fact that the rice is placed in them raw, it is cooked during the stewing process and swells greatly. The grains of rice begin to stick out from the cutlet, resembling hedgehog needles. It's not only fun, but also very tasty!
