Cutlets are one of the most favorite snack, but much low in nutrition value with high potato and oil content. Here is a healthy version of cutlet made out of beetroot 



The below makes around 15 - 2 inch diameter cutlets
Ingredients:
1, Beetroot - 200 gms
2. Carrots - 150 gms
3. Green peas - 100 gms
4. French beans - 100 gms 
5. Potato - 100 gms
6. Mirchi (used for bajji ) - 100 gms
7. Garlic - 3 cloves
8. Ginger - 1 inch piece
9. Rice flour - 2 table spoon
10. Green chilli - 4 nos
11. Coriander  leaves - A hand full
12. Garam masala - 1 teaspoon
13. Corainder powder - 1 teaspoon
14. Bread crumbs - to dust the cutlet
14. Salt - to taste 
15. Oil - for shallow fry 

Method:

1. Steam the Beetroot, carrot, french beans, Green peas and potato.
2. Mash the potatoes
3. Grate the beetroot and carrot as shown in below image.
 2. Add the boiled green peas and french beans

3. Saute the finely chopped Gralic and ginger until the raw smell goes off. Add the chopped green mirchi and fry until mirchi looses the raw flavour. Add the mirchi to the veggies. Also add the mashed potatoes


4. Add rice flour, garam masala, coriander powder and salt to taste

 5. Add the coriander leaves
6. Mix altogether well. If the mixture is sticky or watery , add some more rice flour. If we steam the veggies with correct water content , the grated vegetables will have the correct moisture. 

7. Mould them to the shape of your choice and dust them in bread crumbs and shallow fry them in tawa until the cutlet is golden brown on both sides.



Healthy pink cutlets are ready to serve.
