Soya Cutlets

Soya Cutlets is one recipe which I had it at one of my friend's place and I couldn't resist to give it a try..Am not a big fan of soya chunks but this recipe captured my heart,it just tasted heaven.Soya chunks a big source of protein and if you are a vegetarian this is something you will always love to have.The biggest advantage was that nobody believed it was soya chunks and thought it to be chicken.Now,friends you can guess the taste of the flavorful cutlets :-)
Ingredients
Soya chunks 1 1/2 cup
potato 2 medium sized (boiled n mashed)
onion 1 medium sized chopped
ginger-garlic paste 1 tsp
green chillies 4 (optional)
pepper powder 1 tsp
garam masala powder 1 tsp
turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
salt
oil 2tbsp

For coating 
bread crumbs 1 cup
egg white 2
Oil for frying




Method
-Wash the soya chunks and pressure cook for 1-2 whistles with a little salt.Drain the water and squeeze out the excess water from chunks.Then mince it in a blender coarsely.Also boil the potatoes and mash thoroughly.Keep aside.
-Heat oil in a kadai and add chopped onion and saute well till translucent.Add the ginger garlic paste and stir till the raw smell disappears.
-Add in the green chillies,and all other spice powders.Add the minced soya.Mix well.
-Add the mashed potatoes and dry the mixture.
-Switch off flame and cool down the mix.Then,shape into cutlets in your palm.Dip it in egg white and roll it in bread crumbs.
-Deep fry the cutlets till golden brown,place on a paper towel and serve hot with Ketchup !!



Servings 18-20 cutlets

NOTES
* You can also bake the cutlets at 350 degrees F for 25 minutes.Turn and bake again 10 minutes.
* If you are a pure vegetarian then use the all purpose flour,corn starch paste to dip the cutlets and then roll in bread crumbs. Make a thick paste using all purpose flour(maida) 3tbsp + corn starch 2tbsp+ 1/2 cup water.
