Potato Chops (Mince and Potato Cutlets)
Potato Chops has been a childhood favorite for both myself and my hubby. Even today whenever I make these, both the hubby and my son just can't resist these delicious delights.This is a fairly simple recipe to execute and can be made in batches and you may freeze them for later use. I have used Mince Beef filling. You may use Lamb or Chicken filling as well. Also try to use a good quality bread crumb when frying so that your Potato Chops are crispy on the outside.Do try this dish as it is a unique Cutlets combo which will be loved by all at home especially the kids.
