Vegetable Cutlets

Vegetable Cutlets


 

Ingredients Potatoes – 2 medium  (boiled and mashed)
Mixed Vegetables – 1.5 cups (like green peas, carrots, green beans, corn, etc)
Paneer – 3-4oz
Onions – 1/4 medium (finely chopped or grated)
Ginger & Garlic - 1 tblsp (minced)
Green Chillies – 2 (finely chopped)
Cilantro (Coriander leaves) – 2 tblsp (finely chopped)
Chopped Cashews - 2 tblsp
Lemon Juice  – 2 tsp
Red Chilli Powder – 1/2 tsp or to taste
Roasted Cumin Powder – 1/2 tsp
Salt – to taste
Maida - 2 tblsp (for coating the cutlets)
Bread Crumbs – about 1 cup (for coating the cutlets)
Oil – for frying

Preparation Steps 1. Boil the potatoes and drain them immediately to prevent them from absorbing lot of water. Peel and mash it and keep aside.
2. Finely chop or grate the other vegetables. You can also chop in a food processor.
3. Boil the other vegetables too. You can do it in the microwave or stove top. Squeeze out as much water as possible from the vegetables. This is very essential in making good cutlets.
4. Heat oil in a pan and saute the onions and ginger garlic paste for few minutes. This step is optional and removes the raw flavour in the onions and garlic.
5. Make a very thin batter with the maida and water.  Keep it ready to dip the cutlets.
6. Spread the breadcrumbs also in a plate to coat the cutlets before frying.
