These spicy and generously seasoned Indian-inspired Aloo Tikki Burgers are the perfect way to celebrate Veganuary! Translated from Hindi to English, Aloo Tikki means “potato cutlet.” Made with Idaho^® potatoes, green peas, vegetable oil, yellow onion, ginger paste and earthy spices like garam and chaat masala, these patties are coated in a breadcrumb mixture giving them a crunchy and exquisite texture. If you can’t find chaat or garam masala spice at the store, a flavorful curry powder will work as a substitute. Sandwich the finished patties between toasted sesame or brioche buns and stack with your favorite burger fixings like lettuce, sliced red onions and/or cheese. Pro tip: When preparing the potatoes, make sure to mash them until they are smooth and free of lumps.
