Ingredients
- 250 g Boiled Potatoes (2 medium potatoes)
- 1 cup Cabbage Subji
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
- 3 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 0.25 tsp Salt
Instructions
- 1Peel and thoroughly mash the boiled potatoes in a large mixing bowl until no large lumps remain.
- 2Add the leftover cabbage subji to the mashed potatoes. If the subji has large pieces of cabbage, give it a quick chop before adding.
- 3Add the cornstarch, half of the breadcrumbs, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until the mixture holds its shape when pressed.
- 4Divide the mixture into 6-8 equal portions and shape them into round or oval patties (cutlets).
- 5Coat each patty lightly with the remaining breadcrumbs for extra crunch.
- 6Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- 7Place the cutlets in the pan and shallow fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 8Remove and drain on paper towels before serving hot.
Chef's Tips
- •If the mixture feels too wet to shape, add another tablespoon of breadcrumbs.
- •Since the cabbage subji is already seasoned, taste the mixture before adding extra salt.
- •You can add finely chopped green chilies or fresh cilantro if you want extra heat and freshness.
