Dimer Chop (Round Egg Cutlets)


Somehow this dish always reminds me of Dimer Devil, an egg chop with minced mutton that I ate only once when visiting my Aunt in Chinsurah, a small town in the suburbs Calcutta. But, it is nowhere near that spicy mutton taste. This is still a chop and who cares what is in it when its served hot with kasundi. Bon Appetit!!!

All you need

Boiled Eggs, cut into quarters length wise
Boiled Potatoes, mashed
Chopped onions
Chopped green chilies
Grated Ginger
Salt
Plain Bread Crumbs
Oil for deep frying and a little for shallow frying onions
One egg, beaten


Method
  • Heat a little oil in a pan and fry the onions, green chilies and ginger.
  • Mix the fried onions with the mashed potatoes, add salt.
  • A bit of potato mixture and wrap around one quartered boiled egg.
  • Heat up oil for deep frying, dip the potato wrapped egg ball into beaten egg and coat with bread crumbs and deep fry it.
  • Serve hot with raw onion slices and Kasundi(mustard sauce).
