METHOD:

1. Boil the potatoes until soft. When they’re done, drain the potatoes and leave to cool

in the sieve. You want the water from the potatoes to evaporate, so do leave them for 

long enough.

2.In the meanwhile, prepare the remaining ingredients except for the salt and lime juice, and mix them in a bowl. When the potatoes have cooled down, mash them and add

to the mixture in the bowl. Add the lime juice and salt to taste.

3. Time to shape the cutlets! Take about a golf-ball sized amount of mixture and roll itinto a ball. Next, flatten the ball, dip into the egg, and then into bread crumbs. Do all the

cutlets in this way.

4. Pour oil into a deep pan, or a wok (which is what I used, and what Jasmine uses),

and put on medium high. You’ll need enough oil for deep frying, a few centimeters, I’dsay. The oil is hot enough when it sizzles when you insert a wooden spoon inside.

5. Fry the cutlets for a few min on each side, until they’re heated through and the

coating is cooked. Enjoy!
