Delicious and fun snacks are always welcome in my home! Especially those snacks which are not oily are the ones we look forward to. Yes once in a while it is a-okay to indulge and enjoy snacks like matar kachori, banana chips, palak pakoda. But it’s even better to enjoy snacks with lesser oil in it. Such snacks can still be very tasty just like this bread cutlet.
Bread cutlet can be made with white or brown bread or whole wheat atta bread. Some really fun things can go into bread cutlet. Pop-in-the-mouth boiled peas, sweet corn with capsicum/bell pepper make this snack simply super. All the simple masalas that go in take this cutlet to another level.
Bread cutlet is one of the most favoured after-school snacks that kids really enjoy! So make it fun, place a small piece of cheese inside the cutlet so you will get a gooey, cheesey centre when shallow fried on the pan. Do involve kids to make this snack, they will enjoy making it and then eating them up. Do not forget to supervise, give them simple tasks like tearing up bread or adding in the boiled corn and peas etc.
