  • Add blanched peas , mashed potatoes and sauted onions to the paneer .
  • Mix everything well. Taste test and add if anything required
  • Divide the dough to small / medium equal size balls . Shape them depending on your choice . You can do round flat disc /oval /  heart shape / use any cookie cutter to give special shape .
  • In a small bowl , mix maida or corn flour with 2 to 3 tbsp of water such that no lumps are formed . The batter should not be thick . In another plate spread breadcrumbs.
  • Dip cutlet in cornflour mix to coat all sides and then coat it with bread crumbs well, Repeat same for rest of the cutlets . Keep cutlets covered in refrigerator for 30 mins / more to firm them . You can finish cutlet preparation till here and refrigerate and fry fresh when you are about to serve .
  • The coated cutlets can be deep fried / shallow fried on tawa . Keep oil to deep fry in a kadai / deep pan . Once oil is hot, deep fry the cutlet until golden brown from all side. 
  • Place the cutlet over absorbent napkin to drain excess oil . Serve Paneer Cutlets hot with ketchup / green chutney .

Notes

  1. If you want you can add few other veggies too like capsicum , grated carrot , etc .
  2. Take care that potatoes while boiling don't absorb excess water . If they do , after cooking place the potatoes on tissue paper so that excess water goes .
  3. The final paneer cutlet dough should be tight but not gooey . If its loose you can add some bread or cornflour to it to absorb extra moisture .

    Awesome Smitha, I do the same way. But instead of deep frying, I grill them in the microwave to avoid oil.
