Calcutta Vegetable Cutlets

1 16-oz. package frozen mixed vegetables (make sure it includes green beans)
2 medium thin-skinned potatoes
2 tsp. cilantro or parsley, chopped
2 Tbsp matza meal or breadcrumbs, plus 1 cup for coating
1 egg
1 tsp. salt
pepper to taste
oil for frying

Immerse vegetables in boiling water for 5 minutes, or microwave according to package directions. Mash by hand, or very gently in food processor. Scrub potatoes. Boil, cool and mash. Add to mashed vegetables. Add rest of ingredients, except 1 cup matza meal and oil. Form into balls and flatten slightly. Put crumbs or matza meal in a plate. Dip the patties in the crumbs or matza meal until they are coated.

Heat oil in deep saucepan until it begins to form bubbles. Fry the patties in the oil until golden. Turn over and fry on the other side. Add more oil if needed. Remove from oil and drain well on paper towels. Makes about 20 cutlets.

Note: Instead of frying, you can bake cutlets in oven. Place in a greased pan in a single layer. Drizzle oil on top of each cutlet. Bake in 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Turn over with spatula and cook another 10 minutes.
