Vegetable Cutlet Recipe | Shallow-Fried in Groundnut Oil

Crisp outside, soft and spiced inside — the vegetable cutlet is groundnut oil's shallow-fry showcase.
Ingredients: 2 boiled potatoes; 1 cup mixed vegetables (beans, carrot, peas), boiled and mashed; ginger; green chilli; coriander; ½ tsp garam masala; salt; breadcrumbs; cold-pressed groundnut oil for shallow frying.
1. Mix everything except the breadcrumbs and oil into a firm mixture.
2. Shape into patties and coat in breadcrumbs.
3. Shallow-fry in groundnut oil on medium heat until deep golden and crisp on both sides.
4. Drain and serve hot with green chutney or ketchup.
