Instructions

1. 1

   In a mixing bowl, combine mashed boiled chickpeas, grated paneer, carrots, onions, coriander, ginger-garlic paste, red chilli powder, garam masala, salt, and whole wheat flour. Mix well to form a dough-like mixture.

   5 minutes

   Mash chickpeas finely for a smooth patty texture.

2. 2

   Divide the mixture into two portions and shape each into a flat, round patty the size of your burger buns.

   2 minutes

   Wet hands slightly to prevent sticking.

3. 3

   Heat 2 tsp olive oil on a non-stick tawa or skillet. Shallow fry the patties on medium flame until golden brown and crisp on both sides (about 3-4 minutes each side).

   8 minutes

   Press lightly with a spatula for even cooking.

4. 4

   For the healthy sauce: Mix low-fat hung curd with a pinch of salt and chopped coriander. Optionally add a dash of black pepper.

   2 minutes

   Hung curd gives a creamy texture similar to mayo without the fat.
