Description

Directions

• First cook the potatoes, mash them and keep aside. Chop the carrot, beans and cook it along with the peas until 90% done. Remove any excess water and keep aside. I pressure cooked the veggies and potatoes for 1 whistle.    
• Now heat a pan with 1 tsp oil, add the ginger, garlic, onion and saute until the onion turns translucent. Turn off the flame.  
• Now, to the sauteed onion mixture, add the mashed potatoes, cooked veggies, mint leaves, coriander leaves, red chilli powder, jeera powder, garam masala powder, salt, food color, amchur powder, 2 Tbsp of bread crumbs. Dip the bread slice in water, squeeze nicely until all of the excess water is removed. Add it to the mixing bowl. Now, mix all the ingredients until well combined taking care not to mash the veggies.  
• Now you should be able to make a patty with this mixture. If your mixture is slightly sticky and if you are unable to make a patty, add about a Tbsp of maida/all purpose flour and mix well. Add more if needed.
• Add the 2 Tbsp all purpose flour to a small bowl. Add sufficient water to make a flour paste and keep aside. Spread the bread crumbs in a plate for coating and keep aside.
• Now heat a pan with oil for shallow frying and set the flame to Medium. While the oil is getting heated. Divide the mixture into equal sized balls according to your preference. Now dip the prepared balls in the flour paste and then place it on top of the bread crumbs. Slightly press with your fingers and form it into a thick patty. Turn the patty and make sure that the other side of the patty is also covered with bread crumbs.     
• Shallow fry the patties until both the sides of the cutlet turns golden brown by flipping. It took me about 2 mins on each side. Once done remove from the oil and place in a paper towel to remove excess oil. Repeat the same with the other balls / patties.   
• Enjoy hot with ketchup.
