About Cutlet
Cutlet recipes are a favourite among everyone and I would love to try out other cutlet recipes made using vegetables and potatoes too.
But since ramadan month is going on I thought of sharing some non veg recipes which are highly requested during this time...
Here the chicken is boiled and mixed with boiled mashed potatoes along with some herbs and spices which gives a delicious taste to the cutlet.
These chicken cutlets are made into a round shape, then dipped in egg wash and coated with breadcrumbs and shallow fried/deep-fried. These chicken cutlets taste best by eating them plain or by having them along with ketchup.
These chicken cutlet is actually quite popular in kerala and I am sure after making these cutlets they are surely going to become everyone's all time favorite.
The chicken cutlet can be made into any shape such as round, oval or heart shape and then the cutlets are dipped in eggwash for a perfect binding. If the binding is not right they tend to break while frying.
Below are the recipe details with written procedure and also along with the video.
