Burgers are always mumbo jumbo love. we need a mouthful of it no matter what. I was thinking of making a breakfast recipe and hashbrowns came in my mind but I was really missing Burgers after all its ages in quarantine that I had it. Gladly I got some wholewheat burger buns and I didn't wait to assemble one for myself.
I have made a Hashbrown patty for this burger. Its often referred to as a side but trust me it can give your burger another angle altogether. It's crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside. Little spicy and perfect for my kinda Burger.
To make it more load some you can use two hashbrowns, maybe three. It's your burger have it as you like it.

Direction
For Hashbrowns
Grate Potatoes and put in cold water. Let them sit for 2-3 mins. Extract all water from potatoes with the help of cheesecloth.
Take squeezed potatoes in a bowl. Add flour, cheese, paprika, salt, black pepper, cornflour, and fresh coriander. Mix everything. The texture will be binding.
Take a handful of the mixture and shape them into a patty.
Heat oil in a pan, shallow fry hashbrown patties by flipping it several times till it gets golden brown.
Hashbrown Patty is ready. The mixture will make 3-4 Patties.
For Burgers
Cut Burger buns into half. Toast them in the same pan in which you prepared the patty. Don't use oil.
Now assemble the burger by adding Lettuce, Tomato, Onion, Hashbrown patty, Veg mayo, Cheese slices and cucumber ribbons.
Your Hush Hush Hashbrown Burger is Ready.
Serve it with french fries, coleslaw, or wafers.
Note
You may use any kind of Buns, lettuces, cheese, mayo as per availability
Hashbrown mixture will get soggy with time. Prepare it soon after mixing. If it turns out too soggy that you cant work with it, add some cornflour.
Don't use water at all in the mixture. Squeeze out all water completely.
You may inculcate ingredients you like in your Burger, experimentation is always welcome.
I am sure you missed Burgers too this quarantine. Now is the time to grab your favourite buns, march into the kitchen and make yourself one.
