Triple Bean Vegetarian Cutlet or Patty Recipe

Step 1: To begin making the Triple Bean Cutlet, we have to first prep all the components

Step 2: Steam the finely chopped carrots and beans, along with the fresh corn

Step 3: You can either do this in a pressure cooker or a steamer

Step 4: Put the steamed vegetables in a bowl and set aside to cool

Step 5: Boil the potato, peel it and set it aside to cool

Step 6: Pressure cook the soaked beans until completely soft

Step 7: When the pressure releases from the cooker, pour the beans into a colander, and set aside for the water to drain completely

Step 8: This is important, to ensure that there is no moisture left in the beans as this will cause them to disintegrate when shaping the cutlets

Step 9: In a big mixing bowl, add the vegetables, potato and beans

Step 10: Use a potato masher to mix it all up together into a thick mixture

Step 11: Add the ginger, garlic , chopped onions, green chillies, coriander leaves, mint leaves and mix well using your fingers

Step 12: Next, season with garam masala, red chilli powder, salt and pepper

Step 13: Sprinkle the bread crumbs all over and combine once again

Step 14: The mixture should hold together like a dough now

Step 15: Check the salt and spices and adjust to suit your taste

Step 16: Gently shape the cutlets to the desired size

Step 17: Line them up on a tray or plate

Step 18: Set the cutlets in the fridge to cool for at least an hour

Step 19: This helps them to hold shape better

Step 20: When you are ready to fry the cutlets, warm a little bit of oil in a shallow frying pan, or cast iron skillet

Step 21: Pan-fry the cutlets in batches till they are crisp on either side

Step 22: Serve the Triple Bean Vegetarian Cutlet or Patty as bite-sized appetizers along with a Black Bean Burger
