Leftover Noodles Cutlet

Inspiration for this cutlet comes from Monika's Sinamontales. I was so impressed by the recipe that I had to try it out. Moreover my kids love cutlets of all types. So for Day 5 of Srivalli's Blogging Marathon - Edition 9, here are the delightful cutlets!


I had the opportunity of making these cutlets when one fine morning my little one pestered me to make Maggi noodles for breakfast and after I made it, she changed her mind and refused to eat the noodles. Instead of making a scene, I calmly set aside the noodles and made these cutlets for a snack and the kids polished off their share without a grumble! Can I ask for more? Thanks to Monika for the idea.

Noodle Cutlet


Ingredients - 


Maggi Noodles cooked 3/4 packet
Potato boiled and mashed 1/2 cup
Mixed Vegetables boiled and mashed 1/2 cup (I used carrot, beans, peas and corn)
Onions finely chopped 1/4 cup
Bread Crumbs 1/2 cup or Bread slices 2
Salt as needed


Noodle Cutlet


Method Of Preparation -


Mix the cooked Maggi Noodles (or any noodles) , mashed potato, mashed mixed vegetables and salt and set aside.


In a heated sauce pan and about 1 tsp of oil, saute the onions until they are translucent and remove from fire.


Mix these sauteed onions and bread crumbs to the noodles mixture and mix well to make a stiff dough.


Make palm sized patties (discs) and shallow fry them on a hot griddle/tawa spraying oil as and when necessary.


Cook them on both sides and remove them onto paper towels.


Serve with Ketchup or chutney of your choice!
