Instructions
Prepare the Vegetable Cutlets
- Mash the boiled potatoes. Add the thawed peas, crushed peanuts, all-purpose flour, salt, garam masala, black pepper, and red chili powder. Mix well and form into cylindrical cutlets.
Prepare the Cream Mixture
- In a bowl, combine the cream, grated cucumber, grated carrot, and chopped onion. Gently mix and season with salt and pepper. Remove excess water from the vegetables if needed.
Coat and Fry the Cutlets
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and water to create a thin slurry. Dip each cutlet into the slurry, then coat thoroughly with bread crumbs. Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry or deep fry the cutlets until golden brown and crispy.
Assemble the Hot Dogs

Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Vegetable Hot Dogs
- For extra flavor, add finely chopped fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley to the cutlet mixture.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, increase the amount of red chili powder or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- To make these hot dogs ahead of time, prepare the cutlets and cream mixture separately. Assemble just before serving to prevent the buns from getting soggy.
- Experiment with different vegetables! Zucchini, bell peppers, or mushrooms would make delicious additions.
