Vegetable Cutlets ( Indian )

Submitted by Sana7149

"I found similar recipes posted on the site. But, all of them use bread crumbs for coating the cutlets. Try using semolina - they look beautiful and come out evenly coated and taste crunchy too. Measures are estimates. Use seasonings to suit your taste"

My husband is a huge cutlet fan. I think he would eat anything if it was made into a cutlet! hehe. There were quite enjoyable, but i felt that they could have used a bit more flavor. After I fried a few, I decided to mix in a bit of garlic paste and some chopped coriander. Thanks for the recipe!

These are really wonderful, Sana. We made these y'day for family and friends and oh my, the idea of using semolina as the coating for the patties is simply DIVINE! I have to tell you I was quite astonished and a bit skeptical to try or not to try...I'm so glad I did because my family and I loved it. I did substitute the cornflour with a little less than 1 tsp. of baking soda and I used a little less than 1 tsp. of ginger paste. We cannot eat very spicy, so I used just 1 green chilli for this. The rest I used as per the recipe. These turned out fanta sabulous, crispy and delicious. Next time, I will use lots of corriander leaves - this my Mom suggests who is an expert in this type of food;) I will mix in the finely chopped corriander leaves in the batter and then fry these. We had this with Tomato ketchup. Thank you for a wonderful recipe!
