Ingredients needed for Potato & Corn Tikki Burger:

To make Potato & Corn Tikki Burger you’ll need the following ingredients,

For the Potato & Corn Tikki :

  • Potatoes: Use boiled and mashed potatoes as the base. To prevent the tikki from falling apart, ensure the potatoes aren’t too moist by cooking the potato corn filling. This also helps in shaping the tikkis easily.

  • Corn: Use boiled corn, corn adds a subtle sweetish flavour to the cutlets, enhancing their taste and texture.

  • Onion: Adding red onion introduces a deeper, more complex flavour. If unavailable, shallots or yellow onions can be used.

  • Garlic: Essential for its savory depth, garlic enhances the overall flavour profile of the patties.

  • Green chili: Green chili adds freshness, flavour and a spicy kick.

  • Seasonings: A classic blend of salt and paprika is used to season the patties. This combination is timeless and enhances the natural flavours of the tikki without overwhelming them.

  • Cheese: Cheese adds extra layer of flavour and richness to the tikkis. While the tikkis are delicious on their own, cheese elevates their taste profile.

  • Butter: Butter adds a rich buttery flavour to the patties while frying.

  • Fresh Cilantro: Cilantro infuses the patties with a burst of freshness, adding vibrant flavour that contrasts beautifully with the savory elements.

  • All-Purpose Flour: All-Purpose Flour is used for the batter to coat the tikkis before frying.

  • Dried Bread Crumbs: These serve multiple purpose, binding the patties, maintaining their juiciness and providing a crunchy exterior. Gluten-free bread crumbs are an excellent substitute if needed. Find our Homemade Breadcrumbs RECIPE HERE!

For the Burger:

  • Soft Buns: Opt for Hokkaido Burger buns for their airy, light texture and subtle sweetness. They offer a perfect balance of a crisp crust when toasted and a pillowy interior. If unavailable, brioche or any classic burger bun can be a good substitute, though it’s best to avoid overly chewy or crispy buns as they may be too tough for burgers.

  • Spicy Mayo: This ingredient is essential for adding flavour. Spicy mayo provides a creamy, rich, tangy and spicy kick, contributing to the silkiness and depth of the burger.

  • Lettuce: Use fresh coral or Burger lettuce or any lettuce of your choice, provide a refreshing base for the rich chicken patties.

  • Tomatoes: Tomatoes adds flavours and vibrant colour to the burger.

  • Gherkins/ Pickles: Everyday quick pickles or your preferred variety work well. They offer a tangy contrast that cuts through the richness and saltiness of the other components, balancing the overall flavour profile of the burger.
