Tips & Secrets
- Boiling the keema until completely dry is the secret to a firm cutlet that doesn't fall apart.
- Using Panko breadcrumbs provides a much lighter and superior crunch than regular crumbs.
- Chilling the shaped cutlets for 20 minutes before frying helps the breading adhere better to the patty.
- Adding a tiny pinch of amchur (dried mango powder) provides a necessary tang that brightens the meat flavor.
