Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into cubes. Boil them in water until they are soft, about 10 minutes, then drain the water and allow them to cool slightly.
Steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 5 minutes, then mash them along with the boiled sweet potatoes in a large mixing bowl.
Add the grated carrot, almond flour, grated ginger, chopped green chili, cumin powder, coriander powder, and salt to the potato mixture. Mix well to form a dough-like consistency.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and form each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat the coconut oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each patty for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Prepare the burger by placing each aloo tikki patty between two large lettuce leaves. Add a slice of tomato and some red onion slices before serving.
Serve the Paleo Aloo Tikki Burgers immediately, while the patties are warm and crispy.
