Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground turkey
- 1 medium, finely chopped Onion
- 1 finely chopped Green chili
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon, minced Ginger
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 1 cup Bread crumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 4 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, finely chopped onion, green chili, minced garlic, and minced ginger.
Step 2
Add the chopped cilantro, coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, chili powder, and salt to the bowl.
Step 3
Mix everything thoroughly to incorporate the spices evenly into the turkey mixture.
Step 4
Crack the egg into the mixture and add the bread crumbs. Mix well to form a cohesive dough-like texture.
Step 5
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a flat, round patty or cutlet about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 6
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Step 7
Working in batches, place the cutlets in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and fully cooked through.
Step 8
Remove the cooked cutlets and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Repeat with the remaining cutlets, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Step 10
Serve the Indian Turkey Cutlets hot with mint chutney, yogurt, or your favorite side dish.
