Green gram burger patty

Green gram is called moong dal in India. My little one has been asking me to make a burger. So I used moong to make a vegetarian burger patty. 

Ingredients :
Mung beans - 1 cup
Potato - 1
Olive oil - 1 Tbsp
Onion - 1, thinly sliced
Green chili - 2, finely chopped
Salt - to taste
Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
Coriander leaves - a fistful, finely chopped

Soak mung beans overnight. Strain. Pressure cook for 3 whistles. Strain and set aside. Separately pressure cook potato until soft. Keep aside to cool. Peel and mash. In a saucepan, add oil. Add chili, onion. Stir. When onions become caramelized, add spices and salt. Stir. Add potato. Gently mash beans and add to pan. Stir, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle coriander. Let it cool. Make small patties.

Tip - Dip in egg and breadcrumbs for a crispy texture.
