Potato cutlets

 I was running out of ideas as to what to make for lunch and it's been a long time that cutlet has been requested by everyone at home. So, I decided to make potato cutlets.

I made rasam and potato cutlets for lunch. It was easy and quick as rasam doesn’t take much of time. I got my mum in laws help in frying the cutlets. 

Mostly it's been made out of meat or fish but since I didn’t have any mince item, I made it with potato.

To my surprise my fussy eater, my daughter liked it very much that she was asking for more. How happy I was. 😊
