Fish cutlet - a spicy transformation

We bought a box of fish sticks,imagining that as fish fingures.But I was totally dissappointed with the taste and texture.No body in our house liked it.Even rohith was not willing to eat it.It was lying in our freezer for months now.When I opened the freezer, for some other reason,it caught my eyes and wanted to try something spicy out of it.And hence the title a spicy transformed fish cutlet from fish sticks.Fish cutlets came out really spicy and tasty too.More variations, I am thinking now to tansfer it to a edible one.


Ingredients:
1.Onion                          -              1/2
2.Red chillies                -               2
3.Garlic pods                -               2 to 3

for coating:
1.Egg                               -                    1
2.Bread crumbs               -                    1/2 cup

  9. Savitha,

    Cutlets are inviting, wish I could bite into them. Transformation of food that non-one wants to have into something that would win accolades is an art that every homemaker must inculcate. Keep it up.
