PUMPKIN CUTLETS

Pumpkin is a vegetable with lots of benefits in it. It is incredibly rich in vital antioxidants, and vitamins. This humble backyard low calorie vegetable contains vitamin A, flavonoid poly-phenolic antioxidants such as leutin, xanthin, and carotenes in abundance.But the lover of this wonderful vegetable are not many. So I thought of giving it a tasty twist by making yummy cutlets out of pumpkin. Let's explore the recipe.

INGREDIENTS

Parboiled Pumpkin-1 cup
Grated Coconut-1/4 cup
Boiled Potato-2 medium size
Grated ginger-2 tsp
Fried and crushed dry red chilli-1
Garam masala-1/4 tsp
Roasted and crushed peanut-1/2 cup
Coriander leaf-1 bunch
Green chilli-2, thinly sliced
Bread crumb-1/2 cup
Refined flour (maida)-as per requirement to make the dough tight and for the batter
Cornflour-required for the batter
Salt and sugar- according to the taste

METHOD

Make a batter with maida, cornflour, salt and turmeric powder. Keep aside. Mix all the above ingredients together to make a little tight mixture. Make cutlets out of the mixture, dip into the batter and then deep fry in hot oil. Take out the fried cutlets on oil absorbent paper and serve hot.
