Health Benefits
Whole-wheat bun and vegetable layers beat oversized fried fast-food stacks. Keep sauces thin.
Aloo tikki is already spiced, so the burger needs only chutney and fresh vegetables. A whole wheat bun and a tikki cooked on a tawa keeps the oil lower than a deep fried burger.
Pro Tips
- →Warm bun, crisp tikki.
- →Don’t oversauce.
- →Eat fresh.
- →Cook the tikkis until they are crisp on both sides so they do not turn soft in the bun.
- →Toast the bun cut side down for a minute. It stops the chutney soaking in.
- →Layer lettuce under the tikki to keep the bottom bun dry.
