Notes

While selecting vegetables for the nuggets, cutlets or such snacks avoid vegetables with high water content as this will make them soggy.
Pre heating the oven if you are making baked version or Air fryer if you are making Air fried version is a MUST.
Try to consume them hot straight out of air fryer because when cold they tend to become soggy.
