Method
- Heat the oil in a non-stick pan, add the onions, green chillies and
- Garlic and sauté on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Add the spinach, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, while stirring once in between.
- Add the cooked hara chana, chilli powder, salt and pepper and sauté on a medium flame for another 2 to 3 minutes. Keep aside to cool slightly.
- Add the bread slices and 2 tbsp water and blend in a mixer to a coarse paste.
- Transfer the mixture into a bowl and divide it into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a circle of 75 mm. (3”) diameter and 1 cm thickness.
- Dip each cutlet in the maida mixture and roll in the bread crumbs till it is evenly coated from all the sides.
- Heat the oil in a kadhai and deep-fry each cutlet till it turns golden brown in colour from both the sides. Drain on absorbent paper and keep aside.
- Cut each burger bun horizontally into two. Apply ½ tsp of butter on the insides of each half of the burger bun and toast them lightly on a tava (griddle). Keep aside.
- Place the lower half of a bun on a clean, dry surface with the buttered side facing up.
- Place 1 lettuce leaf and apply 2 tbsp of the spicy mayonnaise spread evenly over it.
- Place a cutlet, 1 cheese slice, 3 cucumber slices, 2 tomato slices and 1 onion slice and sprinkle a little salt and pepper over it.
- Cover with an upper half of the bun with the buttered side facing down and press it lightly.
- Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more burgers.
