The burger is constructed with a meat patty made out of lentils and spices which had traditional garam masala flavors tasted very different from a regular burger. 

The combination of different flavors specially mint chutney, dal and meat shami, eggs, and capsicum packed in side the bun was truly a work of art. People who enjoy hard core Indian and Pakistani food will vouch for these bun kababs.

I thoroughly enjoyed preparing this recipe it was different. My family enjoyed the burgers since it was spicy and packed with traditional flavors. Bun Kababs are truly filling its a complete meal I would suggest you to serve some thick milk shake along with the burgers. My suggestion when preparing an elaborate recipe is to pre prepare all the tiny details ahead of time and then assemble the meal before serving this will save your time.
