SPICY POTATO PEAS CUTLET





Cutlets are perfect snack on any day. They are usually prepared using potato as a base and other vegetables are added to enhance its taste and flavour. Here we have made cutlets using potatoes and peas and egg has been used for the outer coating. The egg binds the cutlet well and prevents the potato peas mixture from coming out while deep frying. Even though we have deep fried the cutlets, you can also shallow fry or stir fry to reduce the oil content.
