Chicken Cutlet

When it rains, people in India crave for chai(tea) and samosas, well I crave for Chicken cutlet instead of samosa!! I have a deep connection with this specific snack as I remember eating them since I was about six to seven years, when my aunt would take me to this small restaurant in the evenings to have a glimpse of her man…Oops to spill.

Chicken Cutlet

It is very easy provided the meat is done, I like the chicken when shredded and like them little chewy then being minced. You can add cottage cheese instead of chicken for a vegetarian version.

INGREDIENTS:

·       Boneless Chicken shredded

·       Onions, finely chopped

·       Green chilli, finely chopped

·       Boiled potatoes

·       Turmeric

·       Cooking oil

·       Salt to taste

·       Bread crumbs

·       Beaten egg

·       Chicken masala powder

PREPARATION:

1.    First, mash your boiled potato with a pinch of turmeric and salt and leave it aside.

2.    To make the filling heat oil in a pan, add the onions, green chili and chicken fry them with little turmeric, salt and chicken masala powder as required. Fry them in a low flame for about 20mins.

3.    Make a ball with the mashed potato mixture with the chicken filling inside.

4.    Dip these balls into the beaten egg and roll them over the bread crumbs.

5.    Now in a deep pan, fry them in oil on a medium flame. Stir after every 30seconds and ensure to cook until golden brown on all sides.

Serve hot with ketchup, chutney, salads and especially a cup of tea!!
