Potato-Bean Burger 

8 medium size potatoes - boiled and mashed 
1/2 can (or approx. 150-200 g.) kidney or soya beans, drained   
3 green chilies, minced  
1 small cube of ginger minced  
3 tablesp. chopped coriander 
Salt and lemon water according to individual taste 
1 small onion - chopped, optional  
your favourite cooking oil    
bread crumbs 
bread for burgers 
1 medium onion, sliced
lettuce
ketchup or chili sauce


Warm beans in microwave about 2 minutes and roughly mash. Mix the boiled, mashed potatoes and the roughly mashed beans.  Add chilies, ginger, coriander, salt lemon water and onion. Mix properly and add 1 tablesp. oil.
Warm in microwave for 30 sec. 

Oil can be excluded if one wishes except in cases when the potatoes are very dry, since oil gives a little sticky consistence which keeps burger together instead of it breaking in pieces. 

Take the burger mixture: Make a pinch larger than table tennis ball, 
and form a thin, flat burger as per the size of the burger bread.   
 
Brush very little water/oil on both sides and spread bread crumbs on both 
sides. 

Warm the burger bread in the oven (according to the information on the 
package) and place the potato - bean burger and the toppings and enjoy 
them.
