Every body loves burgers!! I remember the days when I used to go to Baker’s Fun with my friend for  burger.   Most Saturdays, my friend and i used to get burgers for us. I would get pav bajji for my grand mother.  It introduced her to  street food such as pav bajji, chats. She loves all of them!

Burger at Bakers fun is excellent, I always used to wonder how they get that flavor. I experimented a lot and finally found the secret code. While building the burger they put finely shredded cabbage mixed with yogurt / curd and lemon juice (similar to Cole slaw, but no mayonnaise), just before they close the burger with the top bun, it gives a very nice flavor to the whole burger. When ever you make this burger try to add cabbage and see the difference.

Begin wit the prepar,ed patty (See  “Vegetable Patty” recipe).   One of the fun things about building burgers are that, kids love to build their own. When kids are involved in the “making” process they tend to eat better.

Begin gathering all your favorite ingredients-

• 1 small onion sliced thinly (Cut into circles)
• 1 medium tomato sliced
• 1 romaine  or Ice burg lettuce leaf
• 1 cucumber (Kheera)
• 1 cheese slice (Options sharp cheddar, American, pepper jack cheese)
• 1 cup Yogurt  (Curd) ( Do not use curd water, it will make the burger soggy. Always use the hard yogurt or curd beacuse it gives a very nice flavour. NOTE:American burgers  use mayonnaise and mustard)
• 1 Cup finley shredded cabbage with lemon juice (Optional)

Method

1. Toast burger buns in a toaster or on a grill / pan with cooking oil spray.
2. On the bottom part of the bun spread 1 tbsp curd ( Tastes very good)
3. Place a lettuce leaf.
4. Add patty on top of the leaf.
5. Arrange 3 tomato slices, few cucumber slices and add onion slices on top of cucumbers.
6. Add finley shredded cabbage with little lemon juice mixture on top.( Optional)
7. Spread the top part of the burger bun with tomato ketchup.
8. Take a big bite with some chips and a coke or sprite on the side.
