The Vegetable patties
- In a pan over medium heat add oil and once it becomes hot add cumin seeds and let them pop.

- Transfer the veg patties mixture on a plate and let it cool down for few minutes.
- Now take some mixture in between your palm and make round patties- big or small depending on the size of your burger buns.
- For coating the veg burger patties we need bread crumbs and slurry. To prepare the slurry, in a bowl add refined flour, corn flour and some water and mix till well combined. It will have a medium consistency, not very thick nor thin.
- Now evenly roll the patties in the bread crumbs and then gently roll them in the slurry and then finally in the bread crumbs once again.
- In a pan over medium flame add oil and once it becomes hot add the pattie and shallow fry them from both the sides till crispy golden brown. It will take around 3-4 minutes. Now transfer it on a tissue paper to remove excess oil.

Recipe Notes
- You can add any veggies of your choice. Like beans, finely chopped cabbage, cauliflower, etc.
- If your veg patties mixture has become very soft then add some bread crumbs.
- If you don’t have refined flour, then you can make the slurry only with the corn flour too.
- We have double coated the patties in the bread crumbs for perfect crust.
- After coating the patties, you can let them rest in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, so it firms up and doesn’t break.
