Vegetable Cutlet :)

Amigos...

I know you must be waiting for some savory dish.. So, I planned to post 2 recipes in a row today.. One sweet (Ganesh Chaturthi Special) and the other a snack dish.. You can make it in breakfast or even as a tea time snack. It taste awesome when served hot with tomato ketchup... Crispy outer cover and soft , mouth melting inner portion.

Its combination goes best with toasted bread pieces. but it is absolutely your choice. If you want , stuff a cutlet in between 2 pieces of bread , and enjoy with tomato ketchup and a sip of hot ginger tea , on a rainy morning in your breakfast...  Surely you would love it. My Papa always love them and so do I. Hence , Mumma always used to prepare it for us on rainy mornings and evenings. :) :) :)

Lets start with the recipe... This one is by my mumma :)
