Instructions

Prep you wedges
1

Preheat your oven to 200°C. Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel!). Pop the wedges on a large baking tray in a single layer. Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, sprinkle with nigella seeds, then spread out and roast on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through cooking. Tip: Use two baking trays if necessary - you want the potatoes nicely spread out.

Start the Bahji
2

Roughly chop the coriander (stalks and all) and mix with yoghurt in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and pop to one side for later. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest and halve the lime. Trim the carrots, (no need to peel). Coarsely grate the paneer and half the carrots (you’ll need the remaining half of the carrots for the salad later on). TIP: Keep the paneer nicely chilled in the fridge until you are ready to use it for easy grating!

Finish the Bhaji
3

Pop the grated carrot and paneer in a large bowl. Add the North Indian spice mix, cornflour, garlic, lime zest and half the mango chutney. Season with salt (see ingredients for amount) and pepper. Using your hands, mix well to combine and shape into patties (pressing the mixture tightly together as you do this) about 2cm thick and roughly the width of your burger buns,1 patty per person.

Fry the Bahji
4

Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan on medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place your bhaji patties in the pan, cook for 5-6 mins each side. Tip: You may need to fry in batches so you don't overcrowd the pan. Once fried, transfer the bhajis to a baking tray and pop them into the middle shelf of the oven for 6-8 mins to firm up. Meanwhile, halve the burger buns, then pop them onto the tray with the bhajis for the final 2-3 mins to warm through.

Make your side salad
5

Meanwhile, trim the root from the baby gem lettuce then separate one leaf per person and pop to one side. Thinly slice the remaining baby gem widthways for your side salad. Take the remaining carrot(s) and use a vegetable peeler to peel long ribbons from all sides of the length of the carrot. Stop when you get to the carrot centre. Mix the carrot ribbons and sliced lettuce together in a bowl with a squeeze of lime, drizzle of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Put it all together
6

Spread a layer of mango chutney on the base of your burger buns. Add your bhaji and lettuce leaf. Drizzle on some of the yoghurt sauce and serve any remaining alongside for dipping the wedges. Pop the bun lid on top gently. Serve with a portion of wedges and salad. Enjoy!
