Veggie Burger

Ingredients

425g Red Beans or Kablangetti Beans or Green Lentils (boiled till soft)

1 Red or Brown Onion

2 Cloves Garlic

tbsp Hinds Mixed Herbs

225g mushroom (optional)

3 Leaves Red Lettuce

1.5 Slices stale bread

3 Slices cheddar cheese

1 Sliced tomato

1 Sliced cucumber

Garlic Aoli

Salt & pepper to taste

Method

Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Peel and roughly chop 1 onion, then place it in a food processor. Add the mushrooms and pulse until just finely chopped. (Be careful not to overprocess into a paste.) Transfer mixture to a large bowl and wipe out the bowl of the food processor. Add torn bread to the processor, pulse until it forms fine crumbs, then transfer crumbs to the mushroom mixture.

Add black beans and mixed herb spice, season well with salt and pepper, then mix together until thoroughly combined. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into 1 inch thick patties. Rub all over with oil and dust with mix, then place on an oiled baking sheet.

Roast patties until dark and crisp, 35 to 45 minutes. Sprinkle the burgers with the Cheddar. Let burgers cool slightly to firm up. While the burgers cool, transfer the buns to the hot oven and heat for a few minutes until toasted.

Build your burger as per usual and enjoy!!
