Paneer Burgers

and yes this recipe is also from the same book of tarla dalal. The original recipe calls for mint but since I didn't have those I used coriander leaves instead.

6 brown bread buns
12 lettuce leaves
6 sliced onions
12 cucumber slices
12 tomatoes slices
2 tsp tomato ketchup mixed with 1 tsp chilli sauce (optional)
salt to taste

For The Paneer Burgers:

1/2 cup grated paneer (cottage cheese)
1/2 cup boiled and mashed potatoes
4 tbsp finely chopped mint leaves (I used coriander instead)
2 green chillies , finely chopped
2 to 3 tsp cornflour
salt to taste

Method

For the cheese sauce

1. Heat the milk in a pan, add the cheese slices to it and cook on a slow flame till the cheese melts.
2. Remove from the fire and keep aside. (I used microwave for this step)

For the paneer tikkis

1. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Divide mixture into 6 equal portions.
2. Shape each portion into a round and flatten slightly to make tikkis.
3. Cook them on a non-stick pan using a little oil till both sides are golden brown. Keep aside.

How to proceed

1. Horizontally slice each bun into two and toast lightly in a pre-heated oven or on a
2. Apply a little cheese sauce and some tomato ketchup on both the halves of the bun.
3. On one half of the bun arrange 2 lettuce leaves, a tikki, an onion slice, 2 cucumber slices and 2 tomato slices.
4. Sprinkle a little salt and cover with the other half of the bun.
5. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 5 more burgers.
6. Serve immediately.
