Cabbage Burgers (well almost!!)

So, the other day i was frying some cabbage fritters and thought to myself, if i can fry it then why can't I bake them/shallow fry them. Then, there was no stopping...

Ingredients:

Cabbage - 2 cups (nicely chopped/shredded)
Gram Flour (aka Besan in Indian store) - 1 cup
Chopped Ginger - 2 tsp
Chopped Green Chillies - 1 tsp
Cumin - 1 pinch

Salt and Pepper to taste

Procedure:

Add all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Use a little water if the mixture is too thick. Divide the mixture into 6-7 balls. In a hot skillet, spray a little PAM. Just like burgers, create one at a time and put them on the skillet. Add a little oil and cook it and then turn it. Cook on the other side as well. When half way, press the burger to flatten it a little and just cook like regular burgers. I like to start with very less oil and then once it is half way done, i add my share of olive oil :) This makes them soft and non-dry.


Notes: For all my friends on IP diet, i would suggest eating 2 burgers with some hot sauce (if u like spicy). For the ones, that like to eat as a burger, spread 3-4 leafs of lettuce, cucumber, tomato, spread some low fat mayo, ketchup or just the hot suace and add the burger and enjoy....
