How to Make Street Tawa Burger and Tawa Burger Recipe:

The preparation of a Street Style Tawa Burger begins with the preparation of the vegetable mixture which constitutes the heart of the patty. Start by heating some oil in a pan and fry the finely chopped onions and ginger garlic paste. The addition of chopped green chiles introduces a bit of heat, giving the burger its signature spicy kick. A variety of finely chopped vegetables like capsicum, bell peppers, carrots, cabbage and broccoli lend a mix of colors, textures and flavors to the patty. The vegetables are cooked together until soft, absorbing all the aromatic spices which are added next: Kashmiri red chilli powder for mild heat and bright red color, jeera powder for a touch of earthy heat and pav bhaji masala to bring a slightly tangy, savory richness.

To complement the vegetables, boiled corn kernels are added to the mixture. Once everything is well mixed and cooked, you can stir in some ketchup and Schezwan chutney. To further enrich the mixture, cubes of paneer (Indian cottage cheese) are added.

After cooking the vegetable mixture to perfection, the next step is to assemble the Tawa Burger. The mixture is shaped into patty-like portions and cooked on a griddle or tawa, the method that gives the burger its characteristic crispy exterior. A little butter is added to the pan so that the pancakes are nicely browned.

While the patties are sizzling on the tawa, it’s time to prepare the buns. These are cut in half and lightly buttered before being grilled on the tawa until golden and crispy. Once the buns are ready, you can place a slice of cheese on the bottom half of each bun, which will melt slightly in the heat of the freshly baked patty.

To assemble the Tawa Burger, a generous dollop of spicy veggie patty is placed on the cheesy bun, followed by a few fresh coriander leaves for a burst of freshness. The top bun is then added, completing the sandwich. For an extra boost, you can spread some ketchup or a little more Schezwan Chutney on the top bun before closing the burger.

To give the burger a finishing touch, a tadka is prepared by heating butter and adding a pinch of Kashmiri red chilli powder. This flavorful dip is poured over the assembled burger just before serving.
