Chicken cutlet

Chicken cutlet is my family favourite snack & starter, which taste great with tomato ketchup. I use shredded chicken or boneless chicken & fry them with masala and finally stuff them inside the potato and shallow fry them. I like to shape them little different which looks attractive & tempting as well.

Ingredients :

1. Shredded chicken (or boneless chicken) - 500 gms
2. Cinnamon stick - 1 no
3. Lavang - 2 nos
4. 1 Medium sized onion
5. Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
6. Chilly powder - 1 tsp
7. Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
8. Corriander leaves
9. Salt to taste
10. Garam masala - 1/4 tsp
11. Egg - 1 no
12. Potato - 7 nos
13. Bread crumbs - 1 cup
14. Oil for frying

Method :

• Boil the potato. Add the salt and smash them without any lumps. Keep it aside.
  
• Beat the egg with a pinch of salt. Keep it aside.
  
• Heat oil in the pan, add cinnamon stick & cloves.
  
• Add finely chopped onion. Saute them till golden brown. Add ginger garlic paste.
  
• Add turmeric powder, chilly powder and salt. Saute them for 4 mins.
  
• Add the shredded chicken ( use food processor to shred the boneless chicken) & cook them till tender.
  
• Finally add garam masala & finely chopped corriander leaves. Switch off the flame. Allow them to cool.
  
• Now, make a small ball of potato & stuff the chicken masala and seal them. Shape them ( as u desire)
  
• Dip the stuffed chicken ball in the egg & then in the bread crumbs.
  
• Shallow fry them in the oil till golden brown in either side.

Serve them with tomato ketchup.
