- 1 teaspoon mixed spices
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper powder
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Oil (for shallow frying)
For sauteed vegetables:

- 2 chopped onions
- Black pepper (to taste)

- 1 cup chopped onions
- 1 cup chopped tomatoes
- 1 cup chopped cucumber
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup cheese slices

Preparation:
1. Prepare the chicken patty:
- Start by mincing the chicken well.
- Place the minced chicken in a mixing bowl and add four slices of bread (processed into breadcrumbs using a mixer).
- Add mayonnaise, mixed spices, red chili flakes, and a pinch of salt. Mix everything together thoroughly.
- Gradually add breadcrumbs to the mixture until you achieve a consistency that allows you to shape the mixture into small patties.
- Shape the patties, then make a small indentation in the center of each one and place a slice of cheese inside. Flatten the patties slightly and shallow fry them in oil until they are golden and cooked through.
2. Prepare the sauteed vegetables:
- Heat 1 teaspoon of oil in a pan and sauté the chopped onions.
- Add black pepper, mustard sauce, red chili flakes, mixed spices, black pepper powder, and a pinch of salt. Cook until the onions soften and take on a slightly caramelized look. Set aside.
3. Assemble the burger:
- Lightly toast the burger buns on a pan.
- Spread mayonnaise on the buns, then layer with sautéed vegetables.
- Place the fried chicken patty on top.
- Add fresh toppings such as chopped onions, tomatoes, and cucumber, along with a sprinkle of black pepper.
- Finally, add a slice of cheese if desired and top with the second bun.
