• 2 large potatoes boiled, peeled and mashed
• 2 cup cabbage finely chopped
• 1/2 cup each of carrot and french beans finely chopped
• 2 large onions chopped finely
• 1" piece ginger finely grated
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 1-2 green chillies finely minced (optional)
• 1 green pepper finely chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon garam masala (mixed spice powder)
• oil for frying, salt to taste
• 2 slices of fresh vegan bread
• 1-2 cups vegan bread crumbs

Heat oil in a pan and fry the cumin till it turns light brown. Add onion, green chillies, green pepper, ginger and fry till the onion turns transparent. Mix in the chopped vegetables (except potatoes) and fry for 5 minutes (till all the water is dried off). Remove pan from fire and let the mixture cool. Add the mashed potatoes, salt, and mix well.

Put the pieces of fresh vegan bread in a mixer and turn on till the vegan bread pieces have turned into fine crumbs. Add this bread crumb to the cutlet mixture and mix. (The cutlets have to be fried as soon as the potato and vegan bread crumbs are added to the vegetable mixture else the cutlet mix will turn soggy and break when frying). Heat little oil in a frying pan. Shape the mixture in the form of cutlet and roll it in the bread crumbs and fry the cutlet till it is golden brown in colour.

This cutlet can also be eaten as a veggie burger.
