My Pachi(mom’s sister) is a expert in morphing one dish to other. She makes different cutlets with left over side dishes. They are always very tasty and you can not make out they are from old side dishes. She also makes these simple cutlets from potatoes which taste heavenly and are very filling.
Ingredients: 2 potatoes(cooked) 1 cup green peas 1 cup soya granules or bread(soaked in water, squeezed & then crushed) 1 tbl spn cream 1 tea spn chili powder 1 tea spn garam masala 4-5 strands coriander leaves 1 tbl spn corn flour or maida 1 cup fine sooji(rava) Oil/butter Salt
Method: Mash potatoes and peas. Then add all other ingredients(except sooji & oil). Make a ball of this mixture & give desired shape with hand. Apply sooji to all sides of the cutlet. Deep fry or shallow fry these cutlets till they turn slightly brownish.
Serve hot with mint chutney or tomato ketchup.
