Black Bean & Squash Veggie Burgers

We always have people with a variety of eating preferences & palates attending our BBQ's. In response, I've always had fun experimenting with flavors and making new burgers for our get-togethers. This time I want to share one that was tried and tested with our family recently and is sure to be a hit at your summer BBQ's. This soy-free veggie burger is packed with flavor, that plays off the herby cilantro and spicy BBQ sauce, topped with an avocado slice on a sesame seed bun.

Wednesday (3/22) was Telugu New Year also known as Ugadi. It is usually celebrated with the reading of the New Years' almanac and traditional foods.

This year we celebrated Ugadi on the following Saturday with a table full of friends! We had Mango Rice, Carrot & Cucumber Curd Salad, Tomato Rasam, Spinach Coconut Dal, Potato Fry, Papadums, Tamarind Chutney, Onion Pakora, Paneer Vada, Paneer & Peas in Spiced Tomato Sauce, a spread of Indian Sweets and of course a little Ugadi Pachadi.
This year, since we had an abundance of potatoes from St. Patrick's Day, it seemed fitting to finally add the recipe for Potato Fry that is ubiquitous at our table. This tasty toasted potato side dish has just the right amount of savory spices and crunch that compliment almost every meal.

Here's my recipe for Spicy Potato Fry:
