Delicious nutty veggie patty topped with spinach and red onion in a wholegrain bun. Bursting with lemon and herb flavors, finished with sweet chili sauce. Perfect choice for all burger lovers.
Ingredients:
  • 9.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 wholegrain bread roll, split
  • 33.00 gm sweet chilli sauce (optional)
  • Baby spinach leaves, to serve
  • 1/4 small red onion, very thinly sliced
  • 130g Kent pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 1 x 125g can chickpeas, rinsed, drained, coarsely mashed
  • 30.00 ml fresh wholegrain breadcrumbs (made from day-old wholegrain bread)
  • 9.20 gm dry-roasted walnuts, coarsely chopped
  • 2 tsp chopped fresh chives
  • 1 egg white, lightly whisked
  • 1/2 tsp finely grated lemon rind
Instructions:
  • Cook pumpkin in boiling water until almost tender. Drain and mash coarsely in a bowl. Add chickpeas, breadcrumbs, walnuts, chives, egg white, lemon rind, salt, and pepper. Mix with hands until combined. Shape into a patty, chill in fridge for 30 minutes.
  • In a small non-stick frying pan over medium heat, heat the oil. Cook the patty for about 4 minutes on each side or until warmed through.
  • Preheat the grill on high. Place the roll cut-side up on a baking tray and toast it under the grill for about 2 minutes.
  • 1. Start by placing the bread roll base on a serving plate. Spread with half of the sweet chilli sauce, if desired. Layer with the pumpkin & chickpea patty, spinach, and onion. Top with the remaining bread roll and serve with the extra sweet chilli sauce, if desired.
