Vegetable Burgers

From Cooking Light, feel free to omit amchur if you can't find it. These tender patties are meant to be soft. Prepare through step eight the day before since the mixture is easier to work with once it has been refrigerated overnight. Great served with the Fiery tomato chutney I've posted.
