Heat oil required for frying the cutlets. Fry only till, the outer coating is brown in color. We don't need much time for that as the vegetables are already cooked.
PS:-
- I used a 250 ml standard measuring cup.
- *- instead of curry leaves you can also use 1/2 cup coriander leaves chopped.
- I used coconut oil, you can use any refined oil.
- Instead of corn flour batter, you can also use egg white for binding.
