Instructions

1. Boil Potatoes

   Place the peeled potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water, add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until fork‑tender, about 10 minutes.

   Time: PT10M

2. Mash and Season

   Drain the potatoes, return to the bowl and mash. Stir in cornstarch, dried oregano, chili flakes, salt, pepper, red food coloring, red chili powder and chopped coriander until evenly combined.

   Time: PT5M

3. Prepare Cornflake Coating

   Place cornflakes in a blender or food processor and pulse until a fine powder forms.

   Time: PT2M

4. Form and Freeze Patties

   Divide the potato mixture into 4 equal portions, shape each into a flat patty, press both sides into the cornflake powder, and place on a baking sheet. Freeze for 15 minutes to set the coating.

   Time: PT15M

5. Make Sweet‑Spicy Sauce

   Heat a small saucepan with a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Add sliced onion and bell pepper, sauté until softened (≈5 min). Stir in pizza pasta sauce, tomato sauce, soy sauce, red chili sauce, sesame seeds and honey. Simmer 5 minutes, then set aside.

   Time: PT10M

6. Fry Potato Patties

   Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 180°C (350°F). Fry each patty for 3‑4 minutes per side until golden and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

   Time: PT12M

   Temperature: 180°C

7. Coat Patties in Sauce

   Immediately toss the hot fried patties in the prepared honey‑chili sauce, ensuring each patty is fully coated.

   Time: PT2M

8. Toast Buns

   Spread ghee on the cut sides of each bun. Toast in a clean skillet over medium heat until lightly browned, about 1‑2 minutes per side.

   Time: PT3M

9. Assemble the Burger

   On the bottom half of each bun spread a thin layer of green chutney and mayonnaise. Add cucumber and tomato slices, place the sauce‑coated potato patty, top with a cheese slice, then cover with the top bun.
