vegetable Cutlet

I haven't made cutlet for a long time because
when ever i try to deep fry these patties, it
would crumble in to pieces:(. Then heard some
where that you don't have to deep fry them you
can cook on a non stick pan [Dosa kallu] .
So thought would give it a try and if it is
still a disaster bye bye to cutlets.I tried it
today and it turned out pretty good. I am glad
that i found a perfect way to cook these patties
because cutlet is my son's favourites.

frozen vegetables -1 cup

Shallots-3-4 chopped

microwave or pressure cooker.Mash them well and

keep aside.

chillies and saute until raw smell of shallots

disappears.Add the mashed vegetables,garam

In a bowl add the flour and water and make a paste to dip

the patties.

When the vegetables mix is cool to the touch

make round patties and dip them in the flour

cutlets in a non stick pan with a little bit of

oil/butter. Cook both sides until they are golden
