Potato cutlets are made from boiled potatoes mashed with spices and vegetables and can serve as a filling in sandwiches or burgers or served separately in breakfast or at tea time.

- Onions - 2 medium sized (diced)
- Egg - 1
- Oil - for frying so quantity may vary
Method

- Now mash the boiled potatoes with a fork.
- Add salt and red chillies and mix them using the fork. Note: In case mixing with hands, make sure to wear gloves as the red chillies may leave behind a burning sensation.
- Add the cumin seeds, shredded chicken (optional), vegetables and mix.
- Form patties out of the mixture.
- Beat the egg in a plate. Add salt and all-spice powder and beat with a fork.
- Now dip the potato patty in the egg and place it on the pan with preheated oil. Leave the cutlet on the pan for a while till the egg is cooked. Do not move right away.
