Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 medium (boiled and mashed) Potatoes
- 1 medium (grated) Carrot
- 10 chopped Green beans
- 0.5 cup (boiled) Green peas
- 1 small (finely chopped) Onion
- 2 finely chopped Green chilies
- 0.5 teaspoon (grated) Ginger
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Coriander leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 1 cup (for binding) Bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 cup (for shallow frying) Oil
Instructions
Boil the potatoes, peel them, and mash them into a smooth consistency. Set aside.
Blanch the green beans and green peas for 2-3 minutes in hot water. Drain and chop the green beans finely.
In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, grated carrot, chopped green beans, boiled green peas, and finely chopped onion.
Add the green chilies, grated ginger, chopped coriander leaves, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt to the vegetable mixture. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
Gradually mix in the bread crumbs to help bind the mixture together. The consistency should be firm enough to shape into cutlets.
Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape each portion into small patties (flattened ovals or rounds).
In a small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and water to create a smooth slurry. This will be used for coating.
Dip each cutlet into the flour slurry and then roll it in bread crumbs to coat evenly. Repeat the process for all cutlets.
Heat oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, shallow-fry the cutlets in batches until they are golden brown and crispy on both sides.
Remove the cutlets from the pan and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve warm with ketchup, chutney, or yogurt dip for a delicious and satisfying snack.
