Corn cutlet recipe – These sweet corn cutlet or patties can be had for breakfast or as a evening Snack. Made with potatoes, sweet corn and spice powders, they are pan roasted but can be baked as well. These can be eaten on their own or served with a chutney or can be used as patties in burger. They are tasty and will be loved by everyone in whatever way it is served. They also go well in the kids snack box.
I made these similar to the veg cutlet. These corn cutlet are great for kids’ parties too and most kids will surely love them. These can also be served with green chutney.

Preparation
1. Boil potato in whatever way you like. I made thin slices of potato and boiled it in a pan with water just enough to cover it.
2. It must be just cooked without getting mushy. Drain it if any stock is left. Stock can be added to soups or given to the kids with a pinch of salt.
3. Mash it well.
4. Add corn, red chili powder, chopped chilies, ginger paste, salt, garam masala(spice powder), coriander leaves(cilantro). If you are not using frozen corn, you will have to boil the corn and then use here.
5. Add ¼ cup powdered poha (beaten rice) or bread crumbs. Poha absorbs moisture better and gives a good crust. You can skip using bread crumbs and poha by blending half of this dough in a blender and mix with the rest.
6. Mix everything well.
7. Divide the dough to equal sized balls. If you are unable to bind the dough well, you can moisten your fingers, knead the dough balls. Another way is to blend a small portion of this mixture in a blender and mix it up with the rest.
Pan frying
8. Flatten them and toast on a hot tawa with a tbsp of oil for each batch. As such these patties do not need much oil to toast. They get a good crust due to the addition of red poha. These can also be dipped in batter made of besan or rice flour. Then coated with bread crumbs and toasted.
9. Flip them to the corn patties and toast until golden.
Serve sweet corn cutlet with green chutney or tomato sauce or any other chutney.

Corn patties taste was ausome . But somehow it broke.. any solution n suggestions please..
swasthi says
Hi Thejaswini
If the proportion of potato to corn is not correct they may break. You can remove half of the mixture and blend it in the mixer. Then mix it back with the rest.This will help to bind
