Ingredients:

• Soya chunks/granules: 1 cup
• Potatoes: 2 medium (boiled and mashed)
• Onion: 1 medium (finely chopped)
• Green chilies: 2-3 (finely chopped)
• Ginger-garlic paste: 1 tsp
• Coriander leaves: 2 tbsp (finely chopped)
• Red chili powder: 1 tsp
• Garam masala: 1 tsp
• Turmeric powder: 1/2 tsp
• Cumin powder: 1/2 tsp
• Salt: To taste
• Bread crumbs: 1/2 cup (for binding and coating)
• Cornflour: 2 tbsp (mixed with water for slurry)
• Oil: For shallow or deep frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare Soya:

   • Boil water, add a pinch of salt, and soak soya chunks for 10-15 minutes.
   • Drain the water and squeeze out excess moisture. If using chunks, blend them into a coarse mixture or use granules directly.

2. Mix Ingredients:

   • In a large bowl, mix the prepared soya, boiled and mashed potatoes, onion, green chilies, ginger-garlic paste, and coriander leaves.
   • Add red chili powder, garam masala, turmeric powder, cumin powder, and salt. Mix well.
   • Add bread crumbs gradually to bind the mixture into a dough-like consistency.

3. Shape the Cutlets:

   • Take small portions of the mixture and shape them into round or oval cutlets.

4. Coat the Cutlets:

   • Dip each cutlet in the cornflour slurry, then roll it in bread crumbs for a crispy coating.

5. Fry the Cutlets:

   • Heat oil in a pan. Shallow fry or deep fry the cutlets on medium heat until golden brown on both sides.

6. Serve:

   • Drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Serve hot with ketchup, mint chutney, or tamarind chutney.

Tips:

• For a healthier version, you can bake or air-fry the cutlets instead of frying.
• You can add grated vegetables like carrots or peas for extra flavor and nutrition.
• Adjust spices according to your taste preference.

Enjoy your homemade soya cutlets! 😊
