Instructions
-
Start boiling salted water with washed potatoes until fork-tender; cool, peel, and mash them thoroughly.
-
In a bowl, combine mince meat with half a cup of water or milk, mixing to remove lumps.
-
Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Sauté chopped onions until translucent, then add ginger-garlic paste and green chilies, stirring briefly before reducing heat to low.
-
Stir in chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, and cumin for several minutes, adding water as needed to prevent burning until oil separates.
-
Add the prepared mince meat and salt, mixing well. Cook covered for two minutes, then uncover and stir until all liquid has evaporated. Remove from heat and cool completely.
-
Combine the cooled mince meat with bread crumbs, then add the mashed potatoes, mixing thoroughly. Form the mixture into approximately 3-inch diameter by 1-inch thick cutlets.
-
Heat oil in a shallow pan until very hot. Fry cutlets in batches for about 2 minutes per side over medium heat until light brown, then drain on a paper towel.
