Miso Burgers with Mint and Pomegranate Slaw Recipe


Ingredients
  • 75g bulghar wheat
  • 1 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 2 onions, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 carrots, coarsely grated
  • 1 large red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1 tbsp ground coriander
  • 30g pack coriander, stalks and leaves chopped but kept separate
  • 1 lime, zested, ½ juiced, ½ cut into 4 wedges
  • 2 x 400g cans chickpeas, drained
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste

For the slaw
  • ½ small white cabbage, shredded
  • 1 red onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 2 carrots, shredded (ideally with a julienne peeler)
  • 1 pomegranate  seeds only
  • 2 tbsp chopped mint
  • 1 tbsp cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin rapeseed oil

How to cook?
  • Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Cook the bulghar in a small pan of water for 5 mins. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the onions and garlic, stirring, for 5 mins or until starting to turn golden. Add the carrots and chilli, and cook, stirring frequently, for 5 mins until the carrots soften. Add the cumin, ground coriander, coriander stalks and lime zest, and stir well.
  • Tip the chickpeas into a bowl and crush with a masher or fork, then add the eggs and miso to form a chunky paste.
  • Drain the bulghar well and stir into the spicy vegetables. Take off the heat, shape into eight burgers and place on a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Bake in the oven for 15-20 mins or until firm and starting to turn golden.
  • For the slaw, combine all the ingredients in a big bowl with the lime juice and coriander leaves. Serve with the burgers and lime wedges for squeezing over.
