Perfect for lunch, dinner, or any time you crave a low-carb comfort food classic!
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, mash the steamed cauliflower thoroughly using a fork or masher.
Add almond flour, psyllium husk, green peas, minced ginger, chopped green chili, cilantro, lemon juice, salt, cumin powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder to the mashed cauliflower. Mix well until everything is combined to form a dough-like consistency.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a flat tikki (patty) about the size of your burger buns.
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the tikkis in the skillet and cook each side for about 5-6 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Slice the low-carb burger buns in half and lightly toast them in the same skillet or an oven if preferred.
Assemble the burgers by spreading a tablespoon of low-carb mayonnaise on the lower half of each toasted bun.
Place a lettuce leaf on the bun, followed by a cooked aloo tikki, tomato slices, and onion slices.
Cover with the top half of the burger bun and serve immediately.
