Instructions
- Make the patty mixture : To a bowl, add the ground chicken use your hands to mash it into a smooth paste. Add the minced onion, mint/cilantro, ginger, garlic, green chili, garam masala, salt, red chili powder and cumin powder. Use your hands to mash up the potato and mix well to combine.
- Chill the mixture in the freezer or fridge for 5 minutes while you make the sauce.
- To make the sauce, blend all the ingredients under “for the sauce”. Adjust salt and cumin to taste.
- Shape the chicken mixture into 6 patties. Make sure your hands are wet to make it easier to shape and press down in the middle of the patty with your thumb so it cooks evenly without shrinking.
- In the same saucepan you plan to cook your patties, add some oil and the curry leaves. Cook on medium until they get nice & crispy. Set the curry leaves aside and leave any oil in the pan.
- Add some more oil to the pan if needed and place your chicken patties. Cook the chicken patties for 6-8 minutes on each size, or until completely cooked through. Towards the end, add the cheese and cover to let it melt.
- Assemble your burgers by toasting the buns, layer on the sauce, patties, onions, tomato and crispy curry leaves!
