Add salt, red chilli powder and a little water and mix to make a smooth batter. Take one portion of the soya-potato mixture, shape into a pattie. Dip in the flour batter and roll in brown breadcrumbs. Prepare three more patties the same way. Heat a little oil on a griddle plate. Place the patties on it and cook. Cut the burger buns. Separate onion roundels into rings. Heat two teaspoons of oil in a pan and sauté the onion rings till golden brown. Drain and set aside. Heat a tawa and roast the burger buns. Turn over the soya patties to cook on the other side. Apply the remaining tomato ketchup to the burger bases, place halved lettuce leaves and over it place some caramelized onion rings.
