Chicken Cutlets


Recipe:


500 gm chicken mince
salt, pepper to taste
half tsp turmeric
1 Tbsp ground cumin
1 green chilli, chopped fine
1 lemon
chopped coriander n mint
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
half tsp garam masala
2 Tbsp butter
1 and half eggs
3 medium onions, grated
3 slices bread (soaked n crushed)
1 Tbsp gram flour
pinch of bicarbonate of soda

Method:

Dry the mince (in a deep pan on the stove, medium heat) completely with salt, pepper, lemon, chillis, gg, turmeric, cumin, coriander and mint. Set aside.

Heat the butter, add the onions and stir-fry until translucent. Add the dried mince and let it cook for a few mins. Adjust salt/pepper/chilli and lastly sprinkle the garam masala.

Allow to cool, then add the half egg, gram flour, crushed bread, bicarbonate of soda.

Shape the cutlets and arrange on a greased tray, bake in a medium oven (180 C) for 15 mins). You can turn them on the tray and bake them for an extra 5 mins if you want to but it's not necessary to do so. Be VERY GENTLE during turning or removing from tray to avoid breaking the kababs coz they will be soft.

Remove, allow to cool.

Whip the 2nd egg with a tsp of milk, dip the baked cutlets and shallow fry until nice and golden. Blot and serve as a snack (with chutney or lemon) or as a quick meal with rotis n a salad.
