Additional Tips
- For extra crunch and a nutty flavor, add a tablespoon of finely chopped nuts such as cashews or almonds to the cutlet mixture before shaping them.
- If you prefer a gluten-free option, ensure the oats you use are certified gluten-free, and serve the cutlets with a tangy yogurt dip flavored with mint and coriander for a refreshing contrast.
- To preserve the vibrant green color of the broccoli, blanch it in boiling water for just 1-2 minutes and immediately transfer to ice-cold water before chopping and adding to the mixture.
- Make a batch ahead and freeze the uncooked cutlets in a single layer; when ready to serve, cook directly from frozen in a hot pan—add 1–2 minutes to the cooking time for perfect results.
