Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fish fillets (boneless)
- 2 medium Potatoes (boiled and mashed)
- 1 medium Onion (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger-garlic paste
- 2 medium Green chilies (finely chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Coriander leaves (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper powder
- 2 large Eggs (beaten)
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 250 ml Oil (for frying)
Instructions
Boil the fish fillets in water with a pinch of salt for 5-7 minutes, until cooked. Drain and flake the fish using a fork, ensuring there are no bones.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flaked fish, boiled and mashed potatoes, chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, chopped green chilies, chopped coriander leaves, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper powder. Mix well to form a cohesive mixture.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into patties or cutlets of your desired size and shape (round or oval).
Dip each cutlet into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated, then roll it in breadcrumbs until evenly covered.
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, shallow fry the cutlets in batches for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
Remove the fried cutlets from the oil and drain on a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the fish cutlets hot with your favorite dipping sauce or chutney.
