Vegetable Cutlets


I had leftover rice and mixed vegetables curry that I used in these cutlets. They are only slightly different from the ones I posted earlier.

1 cup cooked rice
1 cup frozen shredded hash browns
1 cup leftover dry veg. curry or finely chopped veggies like onions, bell peppers, cauliflower, peas, carrots, green beans etc.
Upto 1/4 cup fine rava/semolina to bind
Spices - 1 tsp ginger paste, 1/2 tsp garlic paste, 1 tsp cumin pwd, 1 tsp coriander pwd, 1 tsp chaat masala, 1/2 tsp red chilli pwd
Salt and sugar to taste
2 tbsp plain flour mixed in water to make a thin paste

Mix the cooked rice, hash browns (sprinkled with little water and microwaved for 3 - 4 mins.), veggies, spices, salt and sugar and rava. Shape into desired flat shapes like these heart-shaped ones I made using cookie cutters. Dip each in the flour-water mixture and shallow fry or deep fry in hot oil. I always shallow fry in a non-stick pan adding few spoons of oil at a time as needed.

Enjoy hot with chutney or kechup.

I just came across a couple of event announcements - these cutlets would fit the bill perfectly. Hence updating this post to send them to the Scrumptious Delights from Leftovers Event. and Lets Munch - Light Teatime Snack Event.
