Looking at the photograph, I am wondering how can one be such a horrible photographer even after two years of blogging.... I am a lazy blogger, but however insincere I am with every details, I am a sincere cook as they say may be... that makes me happy... So long we respect boundaries, as long as we accept our limitations and appreciate the good in others whole heartedly... we should be a happy lot. In between, all the cat fights are meaningless, waste of time.... We should always mind our own business.... the lack of which in all of us is the cause of all irritation and unrest among us.... Coming to photography.... it also seems I am getting colour blind... That red mat is such a mismatch... Things would not have been such worse hadn't we had to go for a movie last night. Yesterday morning I discovered half packet of macaroni, thought of some cutlets... google searched some sites for the recipe and went ahead with mine. I will definitely mention them later in the post so that you too may find a lot of quick and yummy recipe ideas from there. The photograph may be horrible, but the cutlets were really crisp and tasty.
Later we may change this picture, but today I really wished to share this recipe of Macaroni Cutlet, which was quick, easy and surely to be loved by your family, specially the kids. I used very few ingredients to prepare these vegetarian cutlets like some boiled macaroni, boiled potato, onion, corn and cheese. I am not so much of a cheese person, however yesterday wished to use some, in different food forums I see corn and cheese go very well. We got some smoked Gouda cheese from Amsterdam, I used that. As I have said earlier, I am never particular about the ingredients of a recipe, unless it is an authentic regional dish. My version of Macaroni Cutlet requires very less spices, let us do it.
