Instructions
 

Prepare the Cutlets

  • Combine crumbled paneer, grated raw mango, all-purpose flour, chopped green chili, salt, sugar, crushed black pepper, and chaat masala in a bowl. Mix well.

Sauté Onions and Combine

  • Heat oil in a pan and sauté finely chopped onions until softened. Let cool slightly. Add the sautéed onions and chopped coriander to the paneer mixture. Mix gently to form a dough.

Shape and Fry the Cutlets

  • Divide the dough into 8-10 equal portions. Shape each portion into a small, flat cutlet. Coat each cutlet in cornflour.
  • Heat a little oil in a non-stick pan. Shallow fry the cutlets until golden brown and crispy on both sides.

Make the Mango-Peanut Salsa

  • In a bowl, combine chopped mango, tomato, roasted peanuts, chaat masala, black salt, black pepper, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well.
  • Stir in the yogurt and mix gently. Refrigerate until serving time for best flavor.

Serve

  • Serve the crispy paneer and mango cutlets immediately with the chilled mango-peanut salsa.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Paneer and Mango Cutlets:

  • For extra flavor, marinate the paneer in a little lemon juice and salt for 15 minutes before mixing.
  • If the cutlet mixture is too dry, add a tablespoon of water at a time until it is easy to handle.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the cutlets. Fry them in batches to ensure even browning and crispiness.
  • For a spicier salsa, add a pinch of red chili powder or some finely chopped green chilies.
