Who doesn’t love a good, hearty burger? But, the unhealthy fried patty and overloaded cheese can be a turn off for most. But, this Ayurvedic burger is as healthy as it gets. Here are some of the benefits of the ingredients that go into making this burger

• Carrots balance both the vata and kapha.

• Black beans help control high BP, reduces the risk of heart disease, helps in weight loss, etc.

• Rice is sattvic in nature and balances all three doshas.

Ingredients

• 1 cup carrot (grated and steamed)

• 1 cup kaala chana (black beans), boiled and mashed

• 1 cup boiled rice

• ¼ cup almonds (soaked overnight and then ground into a powdery paste)

• ¼ tsp salt

• ¼ tsp kaali mirch (pepper)

• 1/8 tsp dalchini (cinnamon)

• ¼ tsp ground jeera (cumin)

• Ghee as needed

Method

• Blend all the ingredients in a blender till they form a thick mixture. Ensure that you don’t blend it to the point where it starts becoming thin and runny, as it should resemble a dough.

• Shape the mixture into patties.

• Put the ghee in a frying pan and roast the patties for around 15 minutes. (approx 7 minutes on each side)

• Serve them on a bun, a pita pocket, or between a couple lettuce leaves, and enjoy!
