Potato-chickpea- burgers

Ingredients:

2 potatoes boiled and mashed

1 cup of chana daal soaked in water and ground to paste in water

1 cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, beans, corn here)

2 tsp dhania

1 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp fennel

1/2 tsp garam masala powder

1 tsp garlic paste

Method to prepare patties:

Powder together the dhania, cumin, fennel and keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan and add the garlic paste, the powdered spice mix and garam masala, mixed vegetables, stir in the ground chana daal paste to it and cook for a few mins. Once cooked well mix with it the boiled and mashed potato. take spoon fulls of this mixture and shape them into cutlet shaped patties. Grill the patties with a little bit of oil on a griddle or a grill to assemble your sandwich or burger. (I also froze a batch in plastic wrap for quickly making up the burgers later.)

                           

To assemble my burger I used here my favorite Arnold oatnut bread, my home made potato-chickpea burgers, some rougly cut iceberg lettuce, store bought pickeled cucumber, pickeled red pepper and a drizzle of lowfat dressing and savored with corn chips on the side.
