Burgers & Buns
- 2 Tesco Plant Chef Meat-Free Burgers
- 2 burger buns, split
- 1 large vine tomato, sliced
- Small handful of rocket or spinach
Slaw
- ¼ cabbage (white, red, sweetheart or spring greens), finely sliced
- 1 carrot, grated
- ½ red onion, finely sliced
- 4 tbsp vegan mayonnaise, plus extra to serve
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- Small handful of chives, parsley or coriander, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the burgers and toasting the buns.
- Grill Burgers: Place the Tesco Plant Chef Meat-Free Burgers on a baking tray and grill for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden and crisp.
- Toast Buns: During the last 2-3 minutes of grilling the burgers, place the split burger buns on the tray cut-side up to toast alongside the burgers.
- Prepare Slaw: While the burgers and buns are grilling, combine the finely sliced cabbage, grated carrot, and finely sliced red onion in a bowl. Add 4 tablespoons of vegan mayonnaise, a squeeze of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and your choice of finely chopped chives, parsley, or coriander. Toss well to coat and season to taste. Adjust with extra lemon or mustard if desired.
- Assemble Burgers: Spread a little vegan mayonnaise on the base of each toasted bun. Top with a slice of vine tomato, then a grilled burger, followed by a spoonful of the prepared slaw. Add a handful of rocket or spinach leaves on top and finish with the burger lids.
- Serve: Serve the assembled burgers immediately with the remaining slaw on the side for a fresh and crunchy accompaniment.
