Ingredients

  • 2 medium sized- Sweet potato (boiled and mashed)
  • 1 small- Purple cabbage (thinly sliced)
  • 1- Carrot (grated)
  • 1/3 cup- Fresh grated coconut
  • 2- Green chillies (chopped)
  • 1 tsp- Ginger paste
  • 1 tsp- Garlic paste
  • ½ tsp- Hing/Asafoetida
  • ½ tsp- Turmeric powder
  • Salt to taste
  • ¼ tsp- Garam masala powder
  • 1 tsp- Roasted cumin seeds powder
  • 1 tsp- Coriander powder
  • For coating the cutlets- Breadcrumb, Crushed Cornflakes or Nachos as required
  • 2 tbsp- Vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a frying pan (nonstick preferably). Temper with hing, next to add ginger-garlic paste, sauté for a few seconds. Add purple cabbage, turmeric powder, coriander powder, green chillies, and salt. Mix and cook for 5-6 minutes over medium heat. Keep stirring in between.

  2. Now add grated carrot, roasted cumin seeds powder, and garam masala powder. Mix well, add coconut, and mashed sweet potato. Mix well, stir and cook for 5-6 minutes over medium heat. Adjust salt, and remove from the heat.

  3. Start making round patties and coat them with your preferred coating. I coated the patties with crushed Nachos. 

  4. When all the patties are coated, preheat the air fryer at 180 degrees C (read note). Make sure that you brushed the air fryer basket with oil before preheating. 

  5. Arrange the patties gently into the basket and air fry for 20 minutes. Stop the air fryer in between and flip the cutlets after the first 10 minutes. 

  6. Assemble the burger as per your liking along with the hot patty and serve immediately. The patties taste great on their own as well, so, you can definitely serve them along with tea as a snack or pack them as tiffin. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

  • You can also shallow fry these cutlets if not using an Air fryer.
  • The patties can be baked also. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. Arrange the cutlets in an aluminium foil lined tray. Grease the upper surface of the foil with oil before placing the patties. Bake for 30 minutes or until crisp to touch.
  • These are freezer friendly patties. You can make them in large batches and store the uncooked patties in zip-lock pouches. Consume within a month or two. Just take them out from the freezer 10 minutes prior before Baking/Air Frying.
