Ingredients

Main Ingredients

For The Cutlets

Other Ingredients

For Low Calorie Thousand Island Dressing

Method
For low calorie thousand island dressing
  1. Combine all the ingredients in a deep bowl and mix well.
  2. Refrigerate for atleast 1 hour.
For the cutlets
  1. Clean and wash the broken wheat thoroughly. Soak it in 1 cup of hot water for 15 minutes, drain well and keep aside.
  2. Combine all the ingredients, including the broken wheat in a deep bowl and mix well while mashing lightly.
  3. Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and roll each portion into 75 mm. (3”) diameter cutlet.
  4. Heat a non-stick tava and grease it with 1 tsp of oil, cook the cutlet using the remaining ½ tsp of oil on a medium flame till they turn golden brown in colour from both the sides. Keep aside.
How to proceed
  1. Cut each burger bun horizontally into two. Apply ¼ tsp of butter on the insides of each half of the burger bun and toast them lightly on a tava (griddle).
  2. Apply 1 tbsp of the low calorie thousand island dressing evenly on the buttered side of all the bun halves.
  3. Place a lower halve of the burger bun on a clean, dry surface with the buttered-dressing side facing upwards.
  4. Place 1 lettuce, a cutlet, 3 cucumber slices, 3 tomato slices, 1 onion slice and sprinkle a little salt and pepper evenly over it.
  5. Cover it with the upper halve of the bun with the buttered-dressing side facing downwards and press it lightly.
  6. Repeat steps 3 to 5 to make 5 more burgers.
  7. Serve immediately.
