Step-by-Step
Instructions to Make Indian-Style Egg Burger
Step 1: Prepare the
Spicy Egg Mixture
1.
Crack the eggs into
a bowl.
2.
Add salt, black
pepper, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, and chaat masala
to the eggs.
3.
Whisk the eggs well
until they are fluffy and well combined.
4.
Now, mix in the chopped
onions, green chili, and fresh coriander leaves. This will give the patty a
crunchy texture and a burst of flavor.
Step 2: Cook the Egg
Patty
1.
Heat a non-stick
pan on medium heat and add butter or oil.
2.
Pour a portion of
the egg mixture into the pan, just like making an omelet.
3.
Let it cook for 2-3
minutes until the bottom sets. Then, carefully flip it over and cook for
another 2 minutes.
4.
Once done, take it
off the pan and repeat for the remaining egg mixture.
5.
Cut the omelet into
rounds (burger-sized) or fold it into a thick patty.
Step 3: Toast the
Buns
1.
Cut the burger
buns in half.
2.
Heat a pan, add some
butter, and toast the buns until they turn golden brown. This enhances
the flavor and gives a nice crispy texture.
Step 4: Prepare the
Burger Sauce
1.
In a small bowl, mix
mayonnaise, tomato ketchup, mustard sauce, and chaat masala.
2.
Stir well to form a
creamy, tangy, and slightly spicy sauce.
Step 5: Assemble the
Egg Burger
1.
Spread the burger
sauce generously on both halves of the bun.
2.
Place a lettuce
leaf or shredded cabbage on the bottom half.
3.
Place the spicy
egg patty on top.
4.
Add onion rings
and tomato slices over the patty.
5.
If you like, place a
slice of cheese for extra indulgence.
6.
Cover with the top
half of the bun and gently press it down.
Step 6: Serve & enjoy!
Your Indian-style egg burger is now ready!
Serve hot with masala fries or a chilled drink for a complete meal.

Variations for a Perfect Egg Burger

burger.
