- 3 tbsp Mozzarella Cheese shredded
- 1 1/2 tsp Salt And Pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil for greasing the bowl

Instructions
Prepare the Yeast Mixture
- In a bowl, combine 3/4 cup lukewarm milk, 1 tsp sugar, and 2 tsp active dry yeast. Stir well and let stand for 10 minutes until frothy.
Make the Dough
- In a large bowl, mix together 1 cup whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup ragi flour, 1/2 cup oat flour, 1 tbsp sesame seeds, and 1 1/2 tsp salt.
- Slowly add the yeast mixture, melted butter, honey, and milk powder to the dry ingredients. Knead until a smooth dough forms.
First Rise
- Lightly grease a large bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Preheat Oven & Shape Buns
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down. Shape into 6-8 buns and place them on a baking sheet.
Second Rise & Baking
- Let the shaped buns rise again for 1-2 hours, or until almost doubled in size. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Cool the Buns
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack, covered with a kitchen towel.
Prepare the Patty
- In a bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, chopped plum, onion, spinach, cabbage, sago, carrot, green garlic, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Mix well and form into patties.
Cook the Patties
- Shallow fry the patties in a pan over medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
Assemble the Burgers
- Cut the cooled buns in half and toast lightly in a pan with butter. Spread mayonnaise on both halves. Add cheese slices, lettuce, and the cooked patty. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Buns and Patties
- For fluffier buns, use a kitchen scale to measure your ingredients accurately. Flour absorbs liquids differently based on its type and humidity.
- If your dough seems too sticky, add a little more whole wheat flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it's manageable. If too dry, add a teaspoon of water at a time.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the patties; cook them in batches to ensure even browning and prevent steaming.
- Get creative with the patty filling! Experiment with different vegetables and spices to suit your family's tastes. Consider adding cooked lentils or chickpeas for extra protein.
