Fish Cutlets


These cutlets can be prepared easily and it is very delicious. This can be served as an appetizer or as a tea time snack. Fish, as you all know is rich in nutrition, and these cutlets can be used as a nutrition carrier for the kids.
My mom used to make veg cutlets often, but once I insisted her to try making fish cutlets. She was not confident of how they will turn as she had never tried them before. I told her whatever she make we are there to eat, so she gave it a try and made small quantity of this cutlets.
Result : we fought for it till the last cutlet was eaten.
Usually I wont get time to make these dishes when my little one is around. So I made this when she slept in the afternoon one day and as usual she got up asking “Did you make samosa?”
For her, Samosa is the only snack in the world and every snack is a Samosa :-)
