How long you can store the cutlets without cooking

Once you have coated with bread crumbs, you can store them in a ziplock bag and freeze them for 3 to 4 days. But I personally dont prefer them and want them to be fresh.

I do not have bread crumbs, If so can I able to prepare these cutlets?

Yes you can very well prepare the cutlets without the bread crumbs. But if you want, you can just roll the cutlets in flour (All purpose flour) lightly and then fry them.

What are the substitute of bread crumbs?

Bread crumbs is easily available at stores or you can prepare them easily at home. (Check — > how to prepare the bread crumbs). You can also use, lightly roasted rava (Semolina / sooji), crushed corn flakes, roasted and crushed oat meal.
