Suvir Saranâs Spinach and Potato Patties (Palak Ki Tiki)
"These are adapted from Suvir Saranâ??s potato patties called palak ki tiki, from his lovely cookbook â??Masala Farm.â? They are a striking green because of all of the raw spinach that gets packed into them. The big, spicy burgers are incredibly easy to put together and to cook. Suvir serves them with chutney, either green or tamarind, but we both agree that theyâ??re delicious with plain old ketchup. I made a quick raita to serve with the burgers by stirring sweet pickle relish into plain yogurt. Featured in: Summer Burgers, Hold The Meat...."
