Sweet Potato Cutlet Here's another variation of vegetable cutlet . As a child I loved eating root vegetables especially tapioca but today due to some myths and sayings  I don't eat much of those. My husband keeps telling me and all his Clients that it is not the quantity of food that is important but rather the quality of food.I decided to make food which is very fresh and tastes good as well so that it can be eaten without guilt.  I have used sweet potato instead of normal potato.  This cutlet will taste unique with a little sweet and spicy taste and when you cook this you will find that the texture is also different.
