Recipe for Tofu and Vegetable Cutlets

Recently, I have started experimenting with high-protein vegetarian foods. Tofu is one ingredient that can’t be ignored when planning a vegetarian high-protein meal. So, today, I tried out tofu and vegetable cutlets in my kitchen, and they were a super success. So, here is my Tofu and Vegetable Cutlets recipe.

Please note that with this recipe, you can make eight cutlets.

Ingredients needed for Tofu and Vegetable Cutlets:

1. Tofu: 220 gm

9. Kashmiri Red Chili Powder: 1 teaspoon
10. Salt: 1 teaspoon, or to taste
11. Sesame seeds: as needed
12. Water: to wet your hands while making cutlets
13. Oil: For brushing on the cutlets

7. Press a little so that the sesame seeds get stuck to the cutlet. This way, coat all the cutlets on one side with sesame seeds.
   
   
   
8. Heat a nonstick pan. Brush some oil on its surface. Place the cutlets.
