Healthy Spinach Cutlets

Spinach always reminds me of 'Popeye the sailor man' and hence I get inspired to make more and more recipes using the same. Here is one more such 'Popeye inspired' recipe.. Tasty yet healthier.. Spinach cutlets..

Ingredients:

Fresh bread crumbs- 2 cups

green chilis- 5

ajwain- 1 tsp

garam masala- 1tsp

chat masala- 1 tsp

sendha namak- ½ tsp

jaggery – 1 ½ tsp

spinach- 1 ½ cup

lemon juice- 1 tbsp

salt- to taste

baking soda- ½ tsp

oil- 1 tsp

buttermilk- 1 cup(as per requirement)

oil- to fry

For slurry:

seviya- 1 cup

maida/all purpose flour- ½ cup

red chili powder- 1 tsp

chat masala- 1 tsp

salt- to taste

water- as per requirement

Procedure:

Mix all the ingredients for the cutlets. Add buttermilk as per the requirement, to make the softer dough just soft enough to roll the cutlets.

Make round balls of it.

Mix all the ingredients for the slurry and add water to make the thicker slurry.

Now dip the balls into the slurry and then dip into the crushed seviya. Then give the balls the shape you desire. Here I have just flattened the balls.

Deep fry the cutlets on fast flame till golden brown.

Serve the crispy cutlets with chutney you like. I have sprinkled chat masala powder and injected a coriander spring to make the garnishing complete..
