Bread crumbed Chicken cutlets

With nothing much to do at my new home after marriage,it's a life of bread crumbs  ;) Well I cannot sit idle..errr...not for days at stretch and hours to kill.  After the first few weeks of blissful idleness and devil's mind been-there-done-that, I decided to be productive - to myself and to the family. Basically impress mom-in-law and revel in her appreciative smile :D  And which mom doesn't like saving food from being wasted. So bread crumbs,little chicken and good ol' spices come together in cutlets.



I got this recipe from an interesting site on unique recipes. And before you think I cut-copy-paste the entire thing here,let me tell you the former was inclined more for a bland taste. I have introduced a more spicier taste. Alternatively you can increase the spice level as per your wish.

so here's what you will need  :

Cooked chicken - make it slightly dry off the gravy ,the easier it is for you to make the cutlet balls. Chop the chicken into little pieces.
1 egg
Breadcrumbs - amount is for eg. 100 gm for 250gm chicken - basically chicken should be more
Coriander leaves - 10 leaves , reduce it if your chicken is cooked in spicy gravy
Ginger garlic paste - optional if your chicken is cooked in it already

Mix all in a food processor to a smooth,thick paste. Taste and check if the spicy/bland taste is to your liking.
Make flat balls and roll in crumbs. Do not make them heavy.

Heat oil enough to shallow fry the cutlets.
Put them gently and when both sides are the feel-good brown,take them out greedily enough!! :)

Best served with mayo,garlic sauce or good ol' ketchup.
