Ingredients

3tbsp rapeseed oil

1 large onion, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, crushed

300g cooked beetroot, roughly chopped

400g tin kidney beans, drained

100g porridge oats

3tbsp smooth peanut butter

1tbsp Asda Chipotle Paste

1tbsp garam masala

25g fresh coriander, roughly chopped

2 courgettes, cut into batons

1tbsp Asda Free From Mayo

50ml almond milk

1/4tsp smoked paprika

1/4tsp garlic powder

1/4tsp cayenne pepper

50g fresh white breadcrumbs (made with vegan bread)

1tbsp finely chopped parsley

1tbsp tomato ketchup

1tsp American-style mustard

1tsp dried dill

12 gherkin slices, but 1tbsp juice from the jar

180g Asda Free From Mature Cheddar Alternative, sliced

6 vegan burger buns of your choice, toasted

1 small red onion, finely sliced

2 large vine ripened tomatoes, sliced

60g bag rocket

3tbsp Asda Free From Mayo

Method

Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.

Heat 1tbsp of rapeseed oil in a large nonstick frying over a medium heat. Fry the onion and garlic for 4-5 mins until soft but not browned. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly

Place the beetroot, kidney beans, porridge oats, peanut butter, chipotle paste, garam masala and coriander in a food processor along with the fried onions and garlic, then pulse together until well combined. Divide the mixture into 6 and shape into burgers. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 mins.

Meanwhile, to make the courgette chips, pat the courgette batons dry with kitchen roll.

Mix 1tbsp of the Free From mayo with the almond milk and the dried spices in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and parsley.

Dip the chips in the mayo mixture, then roll in the crumb mixture.

Brush a baking tray with some of the oil, arrange the chips on it then cook for 15-20 mins until golden.

To make the burger sauce, mix together the remaining mayo, ketchup, mustard and dill. Set aside the gherkin slices and mix the juice into the sauce.

Wipe the frying pan clean with kitchen roll, then heat the remaining oil over a medium setting. Cook the burgers for 3-4 mins on each side until the outside crisps and they are heated through – you may have to do this in batches. 2 mins after you flip the burgers, put a slice of the Cheddar alternative on top of each and allow it to melt slightly.

To serve, spread the base of each burger bun with a generous amount of burger sauce, then top each with a burger, some red onion, tomato slices, 2 slices of gherkin and the rocket, then finish with the bun tops.

Serve immediately with the courgette chips on the side.
