Spinach Corn Cutlet

Spinach corn cutlet are a healthy snack option to make for the evenings. These are also good to keep in the kids lunch box. Here is how to make these.

Come rain and the climate changes for nothing but good. That moisture in the air, coolness in the environment and the lush greenery of flora makes me crave for Adrak Wali Chai and something crisp, spicy.

Just to get a hands on a new monsoon recipe, I made Spinach Corn Cutlet for yesterday's supper. As Spinach Corn Cutlet were just shallow fried in a little Rice Bran Oil, they were healthy and safe for consumption.

We always face a dilemma when it comes to choosing the oil that promotes a healthy lifestyle. After doing a lot of research and reading on the benefits and disadvantages of oil, I settled down on using Mustard oil and Rice Bran oil since past 7-8 months and now most of my cooking is done using these two.

So, when Fortune Rice Bran oil approached me to do a few recipes using their brand's oil, I had no reason to say no as I am anyways using the oil in my kitchen. Made from the bran of rice, a nutritious brown layer between the grain and husk, this oil helps reduce bad cholesterol, enhances the immune system and prevents ageing of the skin.

Since the oil does not have any taste of its own, it does not interfere with the taste of the dish.

I have not added cheese in the recipe of Spinach Corn Cutlet, however, if you want to sizzle up this snack a tad then you can use some grated cheese. Cheese would certainly taste well with the combination of spinach and corn. Without wasting a minute, note down the recipe of Spinach Corn Cutlet and make sure to prepare them at home!
