Tawa Tikki Burger with Cashew Almond Tikki is easy to make Burgers with Tikkis that make a filling meal anytime.
These delicious Cashew Almond Tikkis were easy to make and since we used a store bought burger buns, it was a quick meal to fix.
This is for the BM#84 Week 3, where I am cooking on Tawa for a meal. It was quite an experience thinking through what can be cooked completely on a tawa for a meal. Though Dosas and Chapathis are cooked on Tawa, making use of it for other purposes was interesting.
