A veg burger, also known as a vegetarian burger or veggie burger, is a type of burger that is made without any meat or animal products. It is specifically designed to cater to vegetarians or individuals who prefer plant-based options. Veg burgers are typically made with a variety of plant-based ingredients such as vegetables, legumes, grains, and spices. These ingredients are combined and formed into a patty, which is then cooked and served on a bun, often accompanied by various toppings and condiments. Veg burgers offer a flavorful and nutritious alternative to traditional meat-based burgers, and they have become increasingly popular due to the rise in vegetarian and vegan lifestyles.

- 1/2 cup bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- In a large mixing bowl, combine mashed potatoes, mashed mixed vegetables, bread crumbs, finely chopped onions, minced garlic, cumin powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything well until it forms a cohesive mixture.
- Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape them into round patties. Make sure the patties are firm and hold their shape.
- Heat oil in a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Carefully place the patties onto the pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Flip the patties gently to avoid breaking them.

- To assemble the burger, spread a layer of tomato ketchup and mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun.

- Finally, cover the burger with the top half of the toasted bun.
- Repeat the process for the remaining patties and buns.
