• TIPS : Any veggies which suite your taste can be used. Don't use veggies with excess water. If you do want to use them, squeeze out excess water and use( bottle gourd, Zucchini etc) The cutlets can also be used as patties for vegetable burgers. The cutlets can also be deep fried instead of shallow fry. Coat the culets with some oil and bake these in an oven.
