Quinoa Potato Cutlets







In an attempt to finish extra boiled quinoa, I began rummaging around in the refrigerator. On finding spinach and boiled potatoes in there, I thought of sticking them all into cutlets! The golden green discs coming off from the pan were too appetizing to be forgotten! 





Ingredients used:

  • 2 Potatoes (boil'em, mash'em!)
  • 2 cups raw Spinach leaves
  • Boiled Quinoa (as per needed or left!)
  • 1/2 finely chopped Onion
  • 2-3 finely chopped Thai chillies
  • Butter/ Olive oil/ Clarified butter
  • Spices
    • Salt as per needed
    • Thyme or Rosemary (as preferred!)
    • Red chili powder (for preferred inferno levels!)
Steps:
  1. Mix all the above mentioned things together.
  2. Taste the mixture and make amends, if necessary.
  3. Shape cutlets and keep them aside.Dip them in cornflour water for the crispy outer layer.
  4. Heat any of the desired oils or butter in a pan and fry/roast these cutlets. Alternatively, brush them with any of the desired oils or butter on both sides and grill them in an oven like normal potatoes are grilled!
  5. They should be crispy golden brown in appearance so as to be fit for serving. Sprinkle lemon juice over them if preferred.
  6. Crunch'em along with a favorite sauce.
Enjoy!
