Ingredients

• 4 large Potatoes
• 0.5 cup Green peas
• 1 medium Carrot
• 1 small Onion
• 1 Green chili
• 1 inch Ginger
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon Garam masala
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 cup Bread crumbs
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel and cube the potatoes. Place them in a pot, cover with water, and boil until soft, about 15-20 minutes.

Step 2

While the potatoes boil, blanch the peas and finely dice the carrot, onion, and green chili. Grate the ginger and chop the cilantro.

Step 3

Drain the potatoes once they're cooked and let them cool slightly before mashing them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Add the blanched peas, diced carrot, onion, green chili, grated ginger, chopped cilantro, garam masala, cumin powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice to the mashed potatoes. Mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.

Step 5

Sprinkle cornstarch over the potato mixture and mix thoroughly. The cornstarch helps bind the mixture together.

Step 6

Divide the mixture into equal portions and shape them into 1/2 inch thick patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.

Step 7

Spread the bread crumbs on a plate and gently press each patty into the crumbs to coat both sides.

Step 8

Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, place the patties in the skillet, cooking them in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.

Step 9

Cook each side for 3-4 minutes or until they develop a golden-brown crust. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.

Step 10

Once golden and crispy, remove the cutlets and drain them on paper towels.

Step 11

Serve the Vegan Potato Cutlets warm, accompanied by your choice of chutney or sauce.
