Veggie Delight! Kidney bean burger


Hello Dear People,

Hope you are all doing good, sorry this post is arriving really late after the previous one. I am so indulged in cooking and eating sometimes that I forget to take pictures for you ;) . I'll try my best to control my extreme hunger and click pictures before I eat it :D

Moving on, I know the festive season is about to kick off  which means no non veg for days and days (at least for me) :P
My dear husband get really upset when this happens because he refers to vegetarian food as Ghaas-Phoos (grass) which has nothing interesting to eat. but little does he know about the vast variety  and potential of vegetarian cooking.
One more thing that concerns people about veggie cooking is that it takes a lot of time but that's a myth too. Veggie food can be prepared as easily as any other.

Not wasting too much time now, lemme introduce you to the new interesting veggie dish, The Red Kidney Bean burger. Its the recipe for times when you want to eat something western , like a burger but not meat.

Doesn't that look yummy?? I am sure it does. Lets now quickly get on to the recipe
