A fresh Vegetable Burger made at home is a healthier option than the ones available at fast food outlets. The homemade burgers can be loaded with more vegetables and is low in sodium.

Generally in restaurants, veggie burgers are available with only Potato based patties but we prefer the version with extra vegetables for more nutrition, better texture and moistness which makes them more relishing.

  1. This is a great recipe but some of the ingredients are hard to find especially where I live in Miami. I do not have any Indian store close to me. Therefore I cannot use chaat masala, coriander leaves or maida. I use mango powder, black pepper and a pinch of curry powder, cumin powder and cinnamon instead of chaat masala. I also don’t use any maida or coriander leaves and it still tastes delicious. You can eat it with ketchup on the side, add mayo to the bun or make fresh tamarind sauce by boiling tamarind and adding sugar to extracted juice. I love this authentic Indian condiment.
