In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, and egg. Mix well using your hands or a spatula until thoroughly combined.
Add salt, black pepper, paprika, and mustard to the meat mixture. Continue to mix until the spices are evenly distributed.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a cutlet or patty, about 1.5 centimeters thick.
Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the cutlets to the skillet without overcrowding. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Cook each cutlet for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and fully cooked through. The internal temperature should reach at least 70°C (160°F).
Once the cutlets are cooked, remove them from the skillet and let them rest on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the dairy-free meat cutlets hot, accompanied by your favorite sides or in a sandwich.
