🍳 Method

1. Prepare the potato mix
   • In a mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, coriander, chili, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and chili flakes. Mix well until smooth.
2. Shape the cutlets
   • Take a small portion of the potato mix, flatten it in your palm, place a little shredded mozzarella in the center, then close and shape into oval or round patties.
3. Coat the patties
   • In one bowl, mix flour and water to make a thin slurry.
   • Dip each patty into the slurry, then roll it in bread crumbs until fully coated.
4. Fry until golden
   • Heat oil in a pan over medium flame.
   • Shallow fry the patties until both sides are golden brown and crispy.
   • Drain on paper towels.
5. Serve hot
   • Enjoy with ketchup, mint chutney, or garlic mayo.
