Ingredients
  

To make the cutlets:

  • 8 slices bread edges removed
  • 3 pieces potatoes medium, boiled, peeled, and mashed
  • 1 piece onion medium, finely chopped
  • 1 piece capsicum medium, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp corn kernels makai ke dane (boiled)
  • ½ tbsp green chili paste
  • 1 tbsp ginger chili paste
  • 2 tbsp coriander leaves finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp red chili powder
  • 1 tbsp chaat masala powder
  • ½ tbsp garam masala powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper powder
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp corn flour
  • Salt to taste

For deep frying the cutlets:

  • Cooking oil An adequate amount

For roasting the cutlets:

  • 1 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions
 

  • Take a bowl. Make small pieces of 8 slices of bread with their edges removed. To it, add 3 medium-sized potatoes, boiled, peeled, and mashed. Follow it with 1 piece of finely chopped capsicum of medium size, 1 piece of finely chopped onion of medium size, 2 tbsp of boiled corn kernels (makai ke dane), ½ tbsp of fresh green chili paste, 1 tbsp of ginger chili paste, 1 tbsp of red chili powder, ½ tbsp of garam masala powder, 1 tbsp of chaat masala powder, ½ tsp of black pepper powder, 1 tsp of fresh lemon juice, 2 tbsp of corn flour, salt to taste, and 2 tbsp of finely chopped fresh coriander leaves.
  • Mix and mash everything nicely to make the stuffing.
  • Now, take some stuffing in your hand. Roll it to make a ball. Then press it with two hands to give it the flat shape of a cutlet. Repeat it to make all the cutlets.
  • Now, take an adequate amount of cooking oil in a kadai and heat it on a high flame. When it is heated up, turn the flame to medium and gently put the cutlets one by one in the hot oil. Be careful not to splash the hot oil. Do not overcrowd as that will hinder the proper frying and cooking of the cutlets and may also break during the frying process. Add only 3 to 4 cutlets at a time.
  • Flip the cutlets from time to time and cook them until they turn slightly brown in color. Take them out and put them on a piece of tissue paper so that the excess oil is absorbed.
  • Now, when the oil is absorbed, take a tawa and put about 1 tbsp of cooking oil in it. Put the cutlets and roast them on a low flame. Apply some more oil on top of each cutlet piece and roast them for about 5 minutes or so. flip them from time to time to ensure even roasting on both sides.
  • Your crispy homemade bread cutlets are now ready. Lay them on a plate and serve them hot.

Notes

I recommend using slightly stale bread slices to make these cutlets at home. This will render the right consistency and help in absorbing the flavors perfectly.
Boil the potatoes perfectly and mash them to achieve a smooth and cohesive texture. I recommend using a vegetable masher to mash them before adding with the other ingredients.  
While mixing the other vegetables check that they are not mashed to a paste. A slight crunch in every bite is desired.
Refrigerate the mixture for about half an hour. This will add to the flavor and also make it easy to shape the cutlets. Maintain the size and thickness of every piece.
Fry the cutlets in hot oil. This will make them crispy and prevent excess oil absorption. Flip them occasionally till they turn golden brown.
