Sloppy Vegetarian Joe : Sloppy Vegetarian Burger

Pav Bhaji Modification
Sloppy Vegetarian Joe : Sloppy Vegetarian Burger
This is a healthier alternative to the traditional sloppy joe. In this version, vegetables replace the meat and the combination of spices adds loads of flavor and satisfaction. I find that mini potato rolls go really well with this sloppy joe, but you can use your preferred bread choice. It is a sloppy vegetable sandwich.
It is a Pav Bhaji Mod Dish for the Western Palate.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Serves: 4
2 medium potatoes, peeled and quartered
2 Tbsp. extra light olive oil
1 medium sweet onion, peeled and diced
1 medium tomato, diced
1 cup fresh peas or frozen peas, thawed
½ tsp. ground cumin
½ tsp. ground coriander
¼ tsp. red chili powder
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1 tsp. salt or salt to taste
½ tsp. fresh lime or lemon juice
¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
12 mini potato rolls, toasted
Garnish:
¼ cup diced onions for topping
¼ cup sliced grape tomatoes for topping
In a small saucepan, boil enough water to cover the potatoes, add the potatoes. Cook until tender. Discard the water and mash potatoes, set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat the oil. Add onion and sauté over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add the tomato and peas and cook for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low, add the mashed potato, cumin, coriander, red chili powder and sugar, mix until all the ingredients are well blended. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn off heat. Add salt, lime juice and cilantro. Mix well. Scoop 1/4 cup of the Vegetarian Sloppy Joe onto each roll, top with onions and sliced tomatoes and serve.
Flexitarian and vegetarian cooking is extremely healthy. Use these methods to lose weight and maintain a healthy body and lifestyle.

You have great recipes that I've never thought of cooking and they're healthy! Thank you and keep the recipes coming!
Great recepie!! We want more nice recepies from you!!
This dish is similar to something I tried in India so I decided not to include tomato sauce. I also felt it would make it a little soggy. Hope that helps.
I've never tried it with sweet potatoes so go ahead and give it a try. I think it will taste a little different but should be ok. Happy cooking!
I'm curious why you didn't use tomato sauce to give it a more sloppy joe feel?
Could we use sweet potatoes?
Sure, you can use corn instead of peas. I recommend using fresh corn (use frozen if you can't get fresh). Thanks for sharing!
Colorful and appetizing!! Thx so much for this recipe.
