You could also use tin tuna or tuna lite. Drain the excess water & you are good to go

Hi Tina,
Here are a few alternatives:
1. Heat up some white rice with water and cook till it forms a paste (very little).
2. Rice powder diluted iwth a little water.
3. Cornstarch diluted with water.
4. Never tried it but looks promising - Silken Tofu mashed to form a smooth paste.
5. And like Nazreen mentioned above, mashed potatoes.
Hope one of these appeal to you:)

Hi,
I would like to know if the cutlets can be baked in an oven as an alternative to frying on pan. If yes, for how many minutes?
Thanks

I deep fry mine.
To what Ankita asked, I haven’t done it myself but baking should be fine. I think 220°C should be an apt temperature. I would suggest that grilling will be better than baking. Since all the ingredients are precooked you just have to grill till the outer layer becomes crisp and brown. You will need to baste it with very little oil, to make it nice and crisp.
