Instructions
For Cheese Sauce
- Using a double boiler technique, set an empty bowl over a pot filled with little water.
- Add grated cheese, milk, and butter in that empty bowl.
- Continuously whisk it till the cheese melts and gets smooth in texture. It must have a semi thick consistency.
- Once the sauce is ready, take a square plate and line it with cling wrap or butter paper.
- Pour the prepared cheese sauce mixture onto the plate.
- Set aside to cool down at room temperature.
- After that, keep it in the refrigerator to become firm for at least 4-5 hours, or you can keep this overnight to get the best results.
- Once it is set, remove the butter paper or cling wrap and cut it into square pieces. ( Remember, these cheese squares will be used as a filling inside the tikki. Make the tikkis a little smaller in size as compared to the burger buns, and at the same time, cut the cheese slices too. I’ve cut it into square pieces (about 3 inch and 1 cm in thickness).
- Then keep these prepared cheese slices inside the freezer until you get other ingredients ready.
For Creamy Tangy Mayonnaise
- In a medium bowl, add mayonnaise, red chilli sauce and tomato ketchup. Mix it well together nicely. Cover it and set aside for later use.
For Aloo Patty (tikki)
- Wash poha nicely and soak it in water for 2-3 minutes. After that drain all the excess water. Keep it aside.
- Heat a pan on medium flame.
- Add 1 teaspoon of oil along with 1 tablespoon of butter. Allow it to melt.
- Then add the green chillies and ginger. Sauté for 1 or 2 minutes.
- Next, add the boiled green peas. Stir fry for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Then add the boiled potatoes, soaked poha, powdered spices, salt to taste, chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice.
- Mix everything well using a potato masher or using your fingers. Cook this mixture for 1-2 more minutes.
- Turn off the flame and transfer this mixture to a wide bowl.
- Let the tikki mixture cool down at room temperature or you can keep that in the fridge for 10 to12 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the corn flour slurry.
For the slurry
- In a mixing bowl, add refined flour, corn-flour, oil and salt to taste. Combine all the ingredients well. Add water to make a semi-thin slurry.
- Also, take the panko bread crumbs to a plate and sprinkle a little salt over it.
How to make Aloo Patty
- Check the aloo patty mixture. Take it out from the fridge, once it is completely cool.
- Take a spoonful of mixture and make round balls and shape it to make a patty.
- Further press it and make a cavity into the centre to fill in the cheese squares. Do this process little quickly, else the cheese squares will start melting.
- Seal properly and shape it in a tikki form. Make sure, the tikki size should be a little smaller as compared to burger buns.
- Once all your tikkis are ready, dip it into the corn flour slurry and coat it evenly on all sides.
- Then roll each patty with the dry panko bread crumbs. Press it lightly, so the crumbs stick to the patty evenly.
- Heat oil for deep frying the tikkis on medium high-flame and fry the tikkis until they turn crisp and golden brown. You can also air fry them or bake them at 200°c for 7- 8 minutes from both sides.
- Similarly fry other tikkis in batches.
- When patty is about to be ready, let’s start making burgers.
For assembling the burger
- In a non-stick pan, heat butter and toast the burger buns lightly facing on the bottom.
- Then spread the creamy tangy mayo inside the top of the burger bun.
- Now set the aloo tikki over the bottom of the burger bun along with 1-2 slices of tomatoes and onion rings and seal it with the top burger bun by pressing slightly.
- Your cheese burst aloo tikki burger is ready.
- Serve immediately with crispy French fries and soft drink as desired.
Notes
- If you are using a double boiler technique for preparing cheese sauce then make sure the water should not touch the base of the bowl. You can also microwave it.
- Fry these aloo tikkis until they turn golden brown and crisp from both sides. Drizzle some more oil on top and flip it very carefully so it does not break.
- It is not necessary to toast the burger bun. If needed, toast the bun or skip.
- Additionally, you can also add vegetables of your choice while preparing patties for burgers like lettuce, cucumbers, carrot and beetroot slices to make it more healthy.
- Slice the onions and keep it in ice cold water to retain its crispiness (optional).
- For storing the tikkis – Make all aloo tikkis and coat it slightly with breadcrumbs. Store them in the freezer in a container, arrange it between parchment paper and freeze for up to 15 days. Don’t forget to take out from the freeze to set at room temperature before frying.
