Cutlus Ingredients: * 250g potatoes, peeled , boiled and mashed * 1 can of tuna, drained and flaked * 2 red chillies, finely chopped ( optional) * 1 medium onion, finely sliced in half moons * 1 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper * salt * juice of about 1 1/2 limes * 1 large egg, beaten * dried bread crumbs * oil for deep frying
1. In a large mixing bowl, add your onions, chillies if using and lime juice and salt. Using your finger tips squish your onions till they go soft. 2. Add curry leaves or mint leaves and tuna fish and ground pepper. Mix well , and then finally add potatoes. Mix well. Taste adjust salt and pepper and extra lime juice if you like. 3. Make small balls, about 1/2 tablespoon sized balls, I am horrible when trying to shape my cutlets into equal sizes , so I learnt this trick of using a 1/2 tbsp. measuring spoon and using that to take equal amounts and then shaping into balls using my hands. 4. Take two small bowls. Into one add the beaten egg and the other add breadcrumbs. Dip the cutlets in egg , then roll in breadcrumbs. Deep fry in hot oil till dark golden brown. Serve as a tea time snack.
