Though Burger is usually listed in American cuisine, it's origin is still controversial, if it's originated in Germany or in US. Let's make it little more controversial by giving it a indian fusion. Upma Burger is an amalgamation of south Indian popular dish upma with the burger. I made a basic Upma, so that the delicacy of upma is maintained and it's flavour shall not over power the flavours in burger pattie. #Cookingfreaks #fusionweek

Steps

1

To make Upma: Roast semolina in a ghee. Keep stirring and make sure lumps have not formed. Remember, the semolina's colour shouldn't get change, so keep roasting on low flame. Keep aside.
2

Heat oil, and add chilli and curry leaves. Fry till chilli gets pop. Now add both split grams(dals) and fry again for 5 mins.
3

It's time to add onion into it. Fry till onion is translucent. Then add crushed coconut and fry it for 3 minutes.
4

Now add water into it as required (I prefer x3 cups for 1 cup semolina). Add coriander leaves in it and bring it to boil.
5

It's time to add semolina. Keep add little by little into the water stirring continuously. Stirring avoids lumps formation. Cook till it absorbs 5/6th water. Put off the flame.
6

Transfer it to the bun like mould immediately and keep it aside.
7

To make a pattie: grind chicken finely.
8

Mix salt, rosemary, garlic powder, chilli powder and bread crumbs into it.
9

Make a round shaped pattie (required size and thickness). Dip it into a beaten egg, cover it with bread crumbs and shallow fry it till it's golden brown. And keep aside
10

Now take a upma bun, demould it. Apply tomato ketchup on it, place a onion slice on top of it,then place 2 tomato slices, then a pattie, then a cheese slice, then a slice of bell peppers, then spread a handful of cabbage. Cover it with upma bun where ketchup is applied on lower side of it. Bake it at 150°C for 5 minutes or till the cheese melts.
