Chicken Cutlet, a quite popular snacks goes well with Kashundi ( Bengali mustard sauce). Some cutlet recipes contain potato to bind it al together, but I used complete flavor of the chicken as the main base.
Rest it as soon as it comes out of deep frying. The first bite would be the crispy crust on top, that comes because of addition of rice four, and then then the moist chicken as there was no loss of the moisture from the chicken. Try the recipe and do let me know how it go at @thespicepan
