Notes

Note: If the cutlet mixture becomes too soft and difficult to handle, then add more breadcrumbs. Freeze the cutlets for future use after.
 
To freeze the cutlets: First shape them and lay the cutlets side-by-side without overlapping on a large tray with butter paper. Keep the tray in the freezer for 1 hour or until the cutlets become firm. Now remove frozen cutlets from the tray and store them in a sandwich bag. Return the sandwich bag back to the freezer. By doing this the cutlets will not stick to each other.
 
This can be stored for 1 month in the freezer.
