Fish cutlets, an hyderabadi style recipe


Ingredients needed for Fish cutlets:
4 fillets of white fish
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
1 bread slice, soaked in water and squeezed dry
1 tbsp cornflour
1 egg beaten
½ tsp garam masala powder
1 cup bread crumbs
1-2 green chillies, chopped
1 bunch coriander leaves, chopped
salt to taste
oil for frying
2 pinches of turmeric powder

How to prepare Fish Cutlets
Rub fish with salt and turmeric powder. After 5 minutes wash the fish pieces and keep aside.
Steam fish over a pan of hot water and remove all the bones.
Mash the fish pieces with your fingers. Add ginger- garlic paste, salt, red chilli powder, garam masala powder, cornflour, coriander leaves, green chillies and the bread slice.
Mix all these ingredients together to form a dough. Take small balls out of the dough and shape cutlets in the way you like, long, oval or round.
Dip each cutlet in beaten egg and then roll in a plate of bread crumbs.
Heat oil. See that the oil is not very hot as the cutlets will crumble.
Fry till they are golden brown and serve with tomato sauce / ketchup.
