  3. Add in the mashed potato, cashews and lime juice to the onion mix and mix thoroughly. Divide the mix into 8 equal-sized portions and shape into flat oval shaped cutlets. Dust each cutlet in flour, then dip in beaten egg and roll in breadcrumbs.
  4. Heat a little oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. You can also use an electric deep fat fryer if you wish. Fry the cutlets for about 5-7 min till golden and drain on absorbent paper. Serve with a crisp salad for a light lunch or possibly supper or possibly as a starter with brinjal pickle.
