Noodles Cutlet

                                 I am here to introduce a nice recipe especially for kids.. Generally kids loves Noodles. So, by using kids favorite  Noodles I am making nice Cutlets. When your kids gets bored of eating regular Noodles you can just make this noodles cutlets which will be nice Crispy and Yummy and increases the taste by eating with tomato ketchup. So let us begin the process..


Ingredients:
  • Noodles - 1 cup
  • Very finely chopped Onion - 1
  • Very finely chopped or grated Carrot - 1/4 cup
  • Green Chili's - 2 finely chopped
  • Black Pepper Powder - 2 pinches
  • Very finely chopped Coriander - 3 spoons
  • Boiled Mutter (Green Peas) - 1/4 cup
  • Salt - to taste
  • Coriander Powder - 1/4 spoon
  • lemon Juice - 1 spoon
  • Gram Flour - 2 to 3 spoons
  •  Dried Bread Crumbs - to coat
  • Oil - to shallow fry

Method of Preparation:
STEP 1:

                    Firstly, we should half boil the 1 cup of Noodles by adding pinch of Salt to it. For that,  Take the broken Noodles which we don't use or you know at the end  we usually throw them as they will not liked by our children. So, please don't throw away the broken Noodles What you all can do is take them and boil them til they are soft and do not over cook them.

STEP 2:

                 Now, take a large bowl add these boiled Noodles to  it. Along with the Noodles we should add all other ingredients one by one as I guide you. To make the Cutlets  add  very finely chopped Onions, grated Carrot , Boiled and mashed Green peas, very finely chopped Green chili's, and little amount of black Pepper powder, very finely chopped Coriander, Coriander Powder and finally add a spoon of Lemon Juice to it.

STEP 3:

                 Here I am adding Green Peas and Carrot.. We can also add different types of vegetables and also even green leafy vegetables and also even Corn. And instead of Lemon you can also prefer Chat masala etc..This recipe is especially liked by Children as our main ingredient is Noodles.. So, in order to feed them we can add extra proteins by adding all those vegetables.

STEP 4:

                And now to all those ingredients, add Salt as per taste. Be careful, because as I said to add some Salt while boiling the Noodles, it is not mandatory to add Salt while boiling them if you do not add Salt while boiling you can see and add now. Now, mix it nicely.

STEP 5:

                   It is the time to make the Tikki's... But there's a problem. Because if you try to bind this it won't bind and hence here we need a binding ingredient. Generally, in Cutlets for binding we usually add boiled and mashed Potato but here I am adding Gram Flour for a change.Instead of Gram Flour you can also add all purpose Flour (Maida) and even Oats powder to make your snack more healthy!!

STEP 5:

                After adding the Flour, mix it properly and make Cutlets in the desired shape.  While making the Cutlets if it is sticking to your hands you can just dip your hand in some Water and make in to nice Cutlets and keep aside. 

STEP 6:

              This binding is enough, but to give little more binding, I am taking a spoon of all purpose Flour, pinch of Salt and add some Water to make it in to a Slurry. And now make it in to a thin paste but not too thick. So now all our Tikki's, Slurry and Bread Crumbs are ready. And now take a Cutlet and dip it in the slurry and roll them in the Bread crumbs.

STEP 7:

              Take a pan when it is hot enough, add some Oil to shallow fry the Cutlets. Place the Cutlets and cook them in a medium flame till both sides are in nice golden color. Then transfer them to the plate and serve them..
               
                   Serve them with Tomato Ketchup and your kids will enjoy this yummy and crispy Noodles Cutlets..
