Beetroot Mushroom Cutlet



Beetroot Mushroom Cutlet

Today's recipe is a quick and delicious snack/appetizer....the good old favorite, vegetable cutlet with a twist. Cutlets are everyone's favorite and you get it everywhere in India.My  family enjoys vegetable cutlet,just as much as the love meat cutlet. Beetroot mushroom cutlet is one of our favorites. It has the beautiful color and the earthy sweetness of beetroot,the mild meaty taste of mushrooms and  aromatic spices. It is delectable and I am sure even non-vegetarians will find this interesting. Serve this with ketchep or with mint chutney and enjoy with a cup of tea.

Ingredients

Beetroot- 2 medium
Mushroom cleaned and chopped- 1 1/2 cup
Potato- 1 large
Onion- 1 meduim
Ginger-garlic paste- 1 1/3 tsp

Turmeric powder-a pinch
Chilly powder- 1/3 tsp
( according to spiciness you like)
Pepper powder-1/3 tsp
Garam masala-1/2 tsp
Coriander leaves chopped-a handful
lemon juice- 1/2 lemon
salt to taste
Egg white-2
Bread crumbs- 1 cup


 

Cook potato with the skin on,peel and mash and keep aside. Grate beet root or just pulse in a food processor and keep aside. Similarly clean and finely chop mushrooms

Heat one tsp of oil in pan and add onions and saute till onions are soft and changes color. Add ginger garlic paste and saute till the raw flavor disappears.
Add the grated beets and stir fry in medium high flame for about two to three minute. Next add the chopped mushroom and continue to fry. Continue sauteing till all the water from mushrooms evaporates.
Add the dry masala and the crumbled potatoes fry for one more minute and switch off the flame. Add chopped coriander leaves, salt and lemon juice. Combine every thing and make small balls. Flatten on your palm into patties.
In a separate bowl beat egg white till light and fluffy. Spread bread crumbs on a plate.Take each patties and dip in egg whites and then roll on the bread mixture and coat it evenly. Drop patties in hot oil and fry or shallow fry till both sides are evenly brown. Serve with tea.

Kerala Chicken Fry

Kerala Chicken Fry Today's recipe is a spicy and delicious home-style chicken fry. It is similar to the ones popular in thattukadas in Kerala's, Trivandrum region. Fried chicken and chapatis/ parottas is a usual favorite combo in hotels and fast food outlets in Kerala. Do you like fried chicken? I am addicted to crispy, spicy fried foods and spicy fried chicken is any favorite. This is calorie-rich food but I make them once in a while, and this is always my go-to recipe. In Kerala, we often go-to fast food joints and buy this kind of chicken. But I love my mom's recipe that tastes just like the thattukada chicken. For me, this is absolute comfort food and has the deep essence of homey Kerala food. This chicken fry is finger-licking good, crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside with the flavors of earthy spices, coconut oil, and the crispy fried onions adds a delicious flavor to the chicken fry. Chicken lovers will love this simple, yet flavorful chicken...

Kerala Fish Fry/ Chala/ Sardine Fry

Chala/Sardine Fish Fry Spicy sardine fry with rice is my absolute comfort food. Curried or fried sardine fish tastes delicious. Sardine/ Chala/Mathi is found in abundance along the long coastline of Kerala, and so many different ways to cook sardine. Sardines are sustainable food for the coastal regions and are inexpensive and healthy. My favorite way to enjoy sardine is quick and easy fry. These pictures were clicked, during our recent visit to Kerala. It was the rainy season, and we were lucky to enjoy this yummy fish fry. Earlier, I posted another version of this fish fry, along with crispy fried onions and a polichathu recipe in which sardine is wrapped and grilled in banana leaves. Sardine is a versatile seafood delicacy enjoyed in several cuisines. It can be grilled, curried, smoked, fried, or salted and dried.  It is a healthy fish, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and calcium. Sardine is not a mild-tasting fish but has a strong fish smell. If you are trying th...
