Ingredients for Sweet Corn Cutlets

Sweet corn kernels: 1 cup (boiled)

Potatoes: 2 medium-sized (boiled and mashed)

Finely chopped onion: 1 small

Ginger-garlic paste: 1/2 teaspoon

Green chili: 1 (finely chopped, to taste)

Coriander leaves: 2 teaspoons (finely chopped)

Salt: To taste

Chaat masala: 1/2 teaspoon

Corn flour or rice flour: 2 tablespoons (for binding)

Bread crumbs: For coating

Method for making Sweet Corn Cutlets

First, take mashed potatoes in a large bowl. Add boiled sweet corn kernels, finely chopped onion, ginger-garlic paste, green chili, coriander leaves, and all the spices (salt, chaat masala).
Now, add corn flour or rice flour to the mixture. Mix well to form a thick and smooth mixture. This binding will prevent the cutlets from breaking in the oil.

Now take small balls of this mixture and shape them into the desired shape (round or oval). You can make them a little thinner to make them crispier.

Coat the finished cutlets thoroughly in breadcrumbs. This will ensure a crispy exterior and reduce oil absorption. You can also refrigerate them for 10 minutes, which will make them even better when frying.

Heat oil in a pan. Fry the cutlets over medium heat until golden brown and crispy. For a healthier option, you can shallow fry them in less oil.

Serve these hot, crunchy sweet corn cutlets with spicy coriander chutney or tomato ketchup. Believe me, their amazing taste will make your evening snack a super hit. These cutlets are quick to prepare and satisfy your small hunger pangs in a jiffy while keeping your stomach light.
