25g flat leaf parsley, half roughly chopped, half leaves only
1 unwaxed lemon, zest, plus juice to serve
1 tsp plain flour, plus extra for dusting
2 tsp sunflower oil
4 large burger buns, halved
1 garlic clove, crushed
4 tbsp heaped tbsp mayonnaise
120g rainbow side salad
Method
Simmer the squash and sweet potato in salted water for 8-10 minutes until tender, then drain and mash. Mix with the grains and rice, 2 tsp paprika, chopped parsley, lemon zest and 1 tsp flour; season. Shape into 4 burgers, dusting your hands with a little flour to help.
Heat the oil in a nonstick frying pan and cook the burgers over a medium heat for 5 minutes on each side, until dark golden. Meanwhile, heat the grill and toast the buns, cut-side up. Stir the garlic into the mayonnaise and toss the parsley leaves with the rainbow salad.
Put a handful of salad leaves on each bun bottom and sit a burger on top. Add a good dollop of garlic mayo and sprinkle with a little paprika, then add some red pepper slices and beetroot shreds from the salad. Put each on a plate, squeeze over the lemon juice and add the bun top.
Cook’s tip
This burger mix also makes a good alternative to falafel in a warm salad. Shape into rounds and brown in oil. Tumble with the rainbow salad, a can of chickpeas, crushed garlic and a little lemon juice and olive oil.
