Vegetable Cutlets

Vegetable Cutlets

 
Guys time for some healthy snack. This is an appetizer where you have complete scope to put any kinda ingredients. Cutlets are nothing but veggie patties eaten just as. If you want to get someone eat some kinda veggie here is the best way to do that as veggies blend so well in here that you could hardly tell .. ohh boy .. whata tricky cook : -) The best part of this recipe is you could make as many pieces you need at one go and save rest of the batter in the container and when you take it out its as fresh as it was.

 

 
Here is what I used -

 
This recipe will make 16 pieces

 
  • 2 potatoes
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 cup of frozen mix veggies (corn+green beans+carrots)
  • 1 sp ginger garlic paste
  • 2 green chilies
  • 1/2 onion
  • salt per taste
  • 1/2 spoon red chili powder
  • 1 sp cumin+coriander powder
  • 1/2 sp dry mango powder
  • 1/2 sp garam masala powder
  • 2 tbs corn starch
  • 2-3 tbs oil

 
Whats Next -

 
Boil Potatoes. I usually put the frozen veggie bag in the microwave as directed on it. This bag contains more than 1 cup veggies so cook and take out how much ever veggies you want and again put the rest of the remaining veggie bag back in the refrigerator.

 
Fine chop or grate carrot. Make chili paste. fine chop onion.

 
In a bowl take potatoes, veggies(microwaved) and mash everything good. Add chopped veggies(carrot+chili+onion) to it. Add all the dry spices. Give everything a good mix. Taste it and adjust ingredients as per your liking.

 
In another bowl take corn starch; add a little water to it and make paste.

 
Heat the griddle on high heat.

 
Shape your cutlets batter with hand. as creative as it gets guys .. round, heart, cylindrical etc ..

 
Put 1 tbs oil on the griddle and dip the cutlets in the corn starch batter and place cutlets on the griddle. let its color change to golden brown flip it to the other side. drop some oil along side if needed.

 
Serve it hot with Ketch-up, chutney or any dip .. I personally enjoy hot and sour Ketchup bought from Indian store.
