Vegetable cutlet (Kaikari cutlet)

Vegetable cutlet (Kaikari cutlet) - Preparation time 25 mins
We can use the different vegetables to make this cutlet healthy. If we shallow fry with less oil in a non stick pan or roast in an oven it will be very good. While making the cutlet i tried using roasted oats instead of bread crumbs.

Mix the maida with water to coat the cutlet (the maida and water mixture should be very thin just to coat the cutlet so that the oats powder can be coated).
