Peel and boil the potatoes in a pot of water until soft and tender. Drain the water and let potatoes cool slightly.
Mash the boiled potatoes in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil and blanch the green peas for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Finely grate the carrot and chop the onion, coriander leaves, and green chili.
Add the blanched peas, grated carrot, chopped onion, coriander leaves, green chili, and ginger paste to the mashed potatoes.
Season the mixture with cumin powder, garam masala, salt, and black pepper. Add lemon juice and mix the ingredients thoroughly to combine.
Shape the mixture into small, flat patties about 2-3 inches in diameter.
Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. Beat the egg white in another dish.
Dip each cutlet into the egg white, then roll it gently in the breadcrumbs, ensuring an even coating.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with olive oil spray.
Place the cutlets on the skillet and cook for about 4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crisp.
Serve the cutlets hot with your choice of chutney or a low-fat yogurt dip.
