Notes:

  1. If you are using cookie cutter just grease the cutter with oil before pressing.
  2. You can keep it in the fridge for a longer time also.
  3. I made them on the previous day and fried on the next day only.
  4. If you don’t have breadcrumbs, just roast the bread in tawa without oil. Roast it nicely and powder them in the mixie.
  5. Potato cutlet is a perfect crowd pleaser and party snack recipe.
