Tips:

1.If the potatoes become sticky, then add poha in it to absorb excess water.
2.Make sure you remove the boiled potatoes from hot water as soon as they are done or the potatoes will absorb more water.
2.Make sure the frying oil is between medium to high flame otherwise the cutlets will break.
3.You can also keep the cutlets round or oval shape but make the edges smooth.
4.Instead of bread crumbs, you can also use 1/2 cup fine rawa(sooji) and add 1/2 tsp besan. The cutlets will come out very crispy.
5.These vegetable cutlets can also be used as burger patties.
