Ingredients:
  • 420g Jap pumpkin, peeled, deseeded, cut into 1.5cm pieces
  • 9.20 gm olive oil
  • 1 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • 80ml (1/3 cup) water
  • 1 brown onion, finely chopped
  • 2 300g cans soya beans, rinsed, drained well
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 105g (1 1/2 cups) breadcrumbs made from day-old bread
  • 1 carrot, finely grated
  • 125.00 ml loosely packed chopped fresh coriander
  • 20.00 gm almond meal
  • 2 tsp ground coriander
  • 1 egg, lightly whisked
  • 300g green beans, topped
  • 2 bunches English spinach, stems trimmed, washed
  • 18.20 gm olive oil, extra
  • 42.00 gm fresh lemon juice, to serve
  • Crusty wholemeal bread, to serve
  • Lemon wedges, to serve
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 200°C. For the pumpkin salsa, lay a baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Combine pumpkin, oil, ginger, and cumin seeds in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper, mix well. Spread the mixture on the tray and bake for 15 minutes until the pumpkin is lightly golden and tender.
  • In a small saucepan, gently simmer the water and onion over medium-low heat. Cover and stir occasionally for about 6 minutes until the onion is tender. Drain before using.
  • Combine onion, soya beans, and garlic in a food processor and blend until beans are mashed. Transfer to a large bowl. Add breadcrumbs, carrot, coriander, almond meal, ground coriander, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix well using your hand. Form 6 patties, each 8cm in diameter, and place on a tray.
  • Boil beans for 3 minutes until vibrant and crisp. Remove with tongs. Quickly wilt spinach in the same pot for 30 seconds. Drain and set aside.
  • In a spacious non-stick frying pan, warm up the additional oil over medium-low heat. Cook the patties for 2-4 minutes on each side until nicely browned.
  • Arrange the spinach on serving plates, top with the pumpkin salsa and patties. Drizzle with lemon juice and serve with crusty bread and lemon wedges.
