Ingredients

For the Cutlet Mixture:

2 medium potatoes (boiled and mashed)
½ cup mixed vegetables (carrot, peas, beans – boiled and mashed)
1 small onion (finely chopped)
1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste
1 green chili (finely chopped)
½ teaspoon red chili powder
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
½ teaspoon garam masala
½ teaspoon coriander powder

Salt to taste

For Coating & Frying:
½ cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
2 tablespoons cornflour or all-purpose flour
¼ cup water (to make slurry)
Oil for frying

Step-by-Step Guide to Make Crispy Cutlets

Step 1: Prepare the Cutlet Mixture

In a mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, boiled mixed vegetables, and chopped onions.
Add ginger-garlic paste, chopped green chili, and all the spices (red chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, coriander powder, and salt).
Mix well, then add chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice for extra flavor.
Add 2 tablespoons of breadcrumbs and mix to form a firm dough. If the mixture is too soft, add more breadcrumbs for better binding.

Step 2: Shape the Cutlets

Take a small portion of the mixture and shape it into round or oval patties.
Repeat the process with the remaining mixture and set aside.

Step 3: Prepare the Coating

In a small bowl, mix cornflour (or all-purpose flour) with water to make a thin slurry.
Dip each cutlet into the slurry and then coat it evenly with breadcrumbs for a crispy texture.
Repeat the process for all cutlets and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.

Step 4: Fry the Cutlets

Heat oil in a pan for shallow frying or deep frying.
Once the oil is hot, gently place the cutlets in the pan.
Fry on medium heat until golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Remove and place them on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

Step 5: Serve & Enjoy

Serve hot with green chutney, tomato ketchup, or yogurt dip.
Enjoy these crispy cutlets as an evening snack or pair them with bread for a delicious cutlet sandwich.
