Peel the potatoes, cut them into cubes, and boil them until tender. Drain the water and mash the potatoes using a masher.
Finely chop the carrot, green beans, and green chili. Steam or boil the carrot, green beans, and green peas until cooked but not mushy.
Finely chop the onion. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a pan over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent, then add the ginger-garlic paste and green chili. Stir for a minute.
Add the boiled carrot, green beans, and green peas to the pan, followed by red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well mixed.
Add the mashed potatoes to the pan, mix everything thoroughly, and cook for another 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
Stir in chopped coriander leaves and mix well. Shape the mixture into small round or oval patties, about 1/2-inch thick.
In a small bowl, combine cornstarch with water to make a smooth slurry.
Dip each patty in the cornstarch slurry, then roll them in bread crumbs until evenly coated. Repeat until all patties are coated.
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully slide in the prepared cutlets and fry until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Remove the cutlets from the pan using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the veg cutlets hot with ketchup or green chutney.
