You may not accept that you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes meat on a stick – patychky but it can happen. It is fundamental to not eat meat on a stick – patychky or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a healthy diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1800 calories per day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I like – without going overboard of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 6 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I feel like one day a week.

I also think it is helpful if you have some support when dieting and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Meat on a Stick (Patychky)

Very good, I made this for Ukrainian Christmas. I used pork tenderloin only. After you marinate for three hours and have skewered the meat put them in plastic bag and let the sticks make holes in the bag and put sticks upright in a casserole so that the meat marinate drains into the casserole through the holes overnight in the refrigerator. This will not make them soggy when you coat them. When you coat them pat them into a nice roll.

Old-country meat dishes may seem like a lot of work, but the results make the work worthwhile.

3 pounds veal
3 pounds lean pork
6 cloves garlic
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup medium dry sherry
1/4 cup wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

2 cups breadcrumbs
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
Salt
Pepper
2 eggs plus 1 teaspoon oil and mix well

Oil (peanut pil for frying is best at 350 degrees)
2 medium onions, chopped
1 tablespoon butter, softened

Cut veal and pork into 1-inch cubes and place cubes in a large bowl. Chop garlic. In a small bowl, mix garlic water, sherry, wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Pour over meat cubes and stir. Marinate meat cubes for at least 3 hours, or overnight, to allow flavors to blend.

Leaving about 2 inches at the bottom of each skewer, arrange pork and veal cubes alternately on wooden skewers. Squeeze cubes together. Continue to add meat until all the meat is used. You should fill 12 skewers.

In a shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs, curry powder, salt, and pepper. In a second shallow bowl, beat eggs. Dip skewered meat cubes in breadcrumbs. Coat with egg, then dip in crumbs again and pat into a roll.

In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of cooking oil. Fry skewers of meat cubes, a few at a time, until meat is lightly browned, turning to brown all sides. Combine onions and butter and spread in a large shallow baking dish. Place meat sticks on onions and bake in 275 degree F oven for about 1 hour, or until meat is no longer pink.

Serves 12.
