Tofu-Paneer Cutlet

Bought a large pack of Tofu from Costco hoping to make Tofu-Paneer  fritters. But ended up making  cutlets that turned out to be really  good . Kids enjoyed eating them with the ketchup.

Ingredients:-

Paneer/Indian cottage Cheese    – ½ block -7 oz (Nanak Paneer)

Tofu                                          - 2 small blocks – around 9.5 Oz

Green chilies                              - 2  (finely chopped)

Coriander Leaves                      - handful ( finely Chopped)

Coriander seeds                        -  1 tsp crushed

Cumin powder                          - ½ tsp

Chili Powder                             - ½ tsp

Amchur powder                        - ½  tsp

Garam masala                           - ½ tsp       

Salt  

For Dipping & Coating

All Purpose flour/Maida            - 5 tbs

Bread  Crumbs                         - 1 cup

Method:-

    In a wide bowl, make a thick batter of maida by gradually adding water. Spread the bread crumbs on a plate.  Crumble the paneer and tofu and mix it with remaining ingredients. Roll the paneer–tofu mixture into slightly flattened balls. Dip them in the flour batter and make sure it is uniformly coated with the batter.  Then roll them on the bread crumbs. Heat oil in a kadai. Once the oil is heated, deep fry them in medium heat.

Enjoy the cutlets with Ketchup or Chili Sauce.

Tofu Peppers Sauté

It's been a year now since I bought my Soy Milk maker. As Mr.B Commented earlier, I used only four times so far . Thought of making Tofu at home but I didn't have the Coagulant. My friend bought it for me last week. So last weekend I made Tofu at home with soy milk extracted using my soy milk maker.





I made Tofu Peppers Sauté that you can eat with roti or you can make a taco roll.
