Aloo tikkis are turned into an Indian fusion potato burger that blends sweet potatoes, veggies, and spices
Servings: 4 people
Calories: 220kcal
Ingredients
- 4 small sweet potatoes
- 1 cup mixed veggies
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1/2 tsp lal mirch red chilli powder
- 2 tsp amchur mango powder
- 2 tsp arrowroot powder
- 4 tbsp oil of choice for cooking I used avocado oil
- 8-10 curry leaves chopped optional
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs optional
For burger:
- 4 burger buns
- 4 slices of cheese
- Lettuce onions and toppings as desired
Instructions
Step 1
- Wash sweet potatoes and dry with paper napkin. Use fork to “stab” potatoes 3 times on each side and then wrap within the same paper napkin used to dry it. Microwave for 2 minutes and 30 seconds on each side. Total 5 minutes. When you take out, potato skin will be soft and squishy to touch and inside will be cooked.
Step 2
- Cut potatoes in half and scoop out inside with a spoon into a bowl.
Step 3
- Add spices and mix well. Using hands really helps.
Step 4
- Make patties of mixture in burger shape. Optionally either coat both sides in breadcrumbs by dipping patties in a bowl of breadcrumbs for additional crispiness.
Step 5
- Heat 1/2- 1 tbsp of oil in a pan on the stove on medium-high. Cook patties on both sides until browned.
Notes
Feel free to use any type of potato in place of sweet potato!
