Here comes the famous combo "Burger & Fries". The origination place of burger is not sure as per wiki, it may be either Germany or US. But in U.S, the burger is mostly served with french fries. So i'm posting this combo under American food.
When we were in US, while travelling, if we couldnt find any indian restaurant, then we have either cheese pizza or veg burger. That time, i was much hesitant to try any new dishes. So this were life saver for me sometimes.
I'm very much inspired from Chitra's Burger recipe, so far i tried this 3/4 times, it turns out super delicious very time.The original recipe suggest to deep fry the patties, but i just shallow fry them and i couldn't find any major difference(low calorie version right?). Ok. let see the recipe for this world famous combo.
