  • Saute the veggies on high heat for 2-3 minutes.
  • Switch off the heat and add dry mango powder. Mix well.
  • Shift and spread the mixture in a wider plate for easy handling and immediate cooling.
  • Grate potatoes over the mixture.
  • Also add corn flour, breadcrumbs and coriander leaves.
  • Give it a good mix but don't knead it like a dough. Keep aside.
  • Take a medium sized portion of the dough and form it into a roundel.
  • Then shape it into a mount using your finger tips.
  • Finally press this droplet giving it a shape of cutlet.
  • Shape all the mixture into cutlets similarly. Keep aside.

MAKING OF SLURRY

  • Mix all purpose flour, corn flour/starch and salt in a bowl.
  • Add water gradually and keep mixing.
  • When a semi thin slurry is ready, stop adding water.

COATING & FRYING CUTLETS

  • Put the cutlet into a slurry using the fork.
  • Then transfer the cutlet into breadcrumbs and coat from all sides.
  • Likewise do the same with entire batch of cutlets.
  • Fry them from both the sides till golden and crisp in medium hot oil.
  • Take them out.

SERVING

  • Although this is one's personal choice how he enjoys cutlets but in train it is served with buttered bread slices and a pouch of ketchup. Just apply butter on two bread slices. Place a cutlet on buttered side of bread and apply ketchup. Then put the another slice and enjoy with a cup of hot tea.

Notes

If you don't want to fry some of the cutlets, then the rest can be stored in refrigerator for one day by putting in airtight container.
These cutlets can be frozen in freezer safe bags/boxes for 2 to 3 months. For frying, just bring them out of freezer and fry. Do not thwart.
