Vegetable Burger with a Vegetable Cutlet

I get the feeling that my blog is getting to be all about simple foods. Take the vegetable burger for example. The main reason for wanting to make one was the feeling of home-made plus the fact that I dont happen to get vegetable burgers in many McD or BK outlets. I experimented and found a rather simple way of making a veggie burger. Make a cutlet and place it between burger buns and voila! Try it if you would want to do the same

What you need to make Vegetable Burger

  • Maida (All purpose Flour) - 1 cup
  • Peas - 1/2 cup
  • Carrot - 1/4 cup
  • Beans - 1/4 cup
  • Potato - 1/2 cup
  • Sweet Corn - 1/4 cup
  • Onion - 1 cup
  • Coriander - 4 strands
  • Ginger - 1 inch piece
  • Garlic - 5 pods
  • Red chilli powder - 4 tsps
  • Salt
For the burger
  • Burger buns (sliced in half)
  • Butter / Cheese
  • Tomatoes
  • Cucumber
  • Lettuce
Preparation to make Vegetable Burger

  • Cook the potato with the peel in either pressure cooker or by boiling in water. Once cooked peel the skin and mash the potatoes

Method to make Vegetable Burger

  • Heat some oil in a pan and add onions to it and fry till golden. Add the mashed potatoes to it and mix. Add the ginger garlic paste and cook all together for a minute. Remove from flame.
  • Allow it to cool and then add the rest of the cooked vegetables and coriander to this and mix.
  • Now add the flour, red chilli powder and salt to it to get the mixture to a dry texture.
  • Make balls of this mixture and keep.
  • Heat a tsp of oil in a pan, flatten the ball in hand in shape of a cutlet and place it on the pan to shallow fry.
  • Shallow fry it on both sides.
  • Once it turns a little browner and crisp its done.
  • Butter the insides of the burger bun halves or place a cheese slice.
  • Place two slices each of the cucumber and tomatoes and some lettuce.
  • Place the burger on top of it and close with the other half of the bun.
  • Burger is ready!
