These delicious hors d'oeuvres can be served anytime. You may prepare the patties in advance and refrigerate without cooking. Fry them when ready to eat. They can be reheated in the microwave oven (1 to 2 minutes) or in the conventional oven (10 minutes at 400 degrees F) or in a skillet. You can modify the vegetables and spices as desired.

Time 40m

Yield 20 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 large potatoes, boiled
2 -3 slices bread
1 cup green peas
3/4 cup grated carrot
3/4 cup grated cabbage
2 tablespoons gram flour (or all purpose flour)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon oil, plus oil for deep frying as needed
1 teaspoon crushed mild green chili
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon mango powder
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
1 tablespoon chopped green coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Mash the potatoes along with the bread slices.
  • (It is better to mash potatoes while they are still hot.) Add all the seasonings.
  • Sauté the green peas, carrots, and cabbage in 1 tablespoon oil; cook until tender and dry; mix with the potato mash and make like a hard dough.
  • Make a thin mixture of gram flour (or all-purpose flour) by adding about 1/3 cup water.
  • Take small balls of the potato vegetable mixture on palm of your hand and make into oval or round patties.
  • Wet the patties in the flour solution, roll in the bread crumbs, and deep fry at high heat (cutlets tend to break on low heat) until golden brown on all sides.
  • Drain the cutlets on paper towels.
  • Serve hot with'Mint Coriander Chutney' or ketchup.
  • Healthy Alternative: Instead of deep frying, brown the cutlets in a wide skillet on low to medium heat, using a teaspoon of oil on both sides.
  • Or arrange the patties on a well greased cookie sheet; bake in the pre heated oven at 375 to 400°F for 20 minutes.
  • Turn, adding more oil as needed.
  • Bake for another 15 minutes.

These cutlets were a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some more moisture to the batter next time.

I had a hard time getting the cutlets to hold together. I think I might have over-mixed the batter.

These cutlets were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

I love that these cutlets are baked, not fried. It makes them a healthier option without sacrificing any flavor.
