Some Kind of Cutlet

Ingredient:
1/2 cup minced onion
2 Tbs. peeled, minced fresh ginger
2 tsp. minced garlic
1 tsp. seeded, chopped fresh green chili (or to taste)
2 Tbs. finely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 tsp. asafetida powder
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. ground coriander
3/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. sugar
1/8 tsp. black pepper (preferably freshly ground)
Pinch of ground red chili or cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1 lb (1/2 kg) extra lean ground chicken or lamb
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
Vegetable oil for pan-frying
Corn flour
Method:
Combine all spices in a large bowl. Gently mix in the ground meat without squeezing out the moisture. Pinch off a portion of this mixture, shaping it into a circular patty about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and 1/2 inch thick. repeat with the remainder.
Dip patties in the egg and corn flour batter and then coat them lightly on both sides with the breadcrumbs.
Heat 11/2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium low heat. Fry 3 or 4 patties at a time until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes on each side; a toothpick inserted in the thickest part and moved gently to one side should not show a pink color. Do not press down on the patties during frying as this can cause the burgers to loose their natural juices.
