Lovely Vegan burger
For 4 people
What you need:
1pc Porlammi’s vegan cheese, cut into slices
4 burger buns
2 avocados
1 red onion
3 tomatoes
1 eggplant
1 bunch of kale
Filling:
Green cashew paste
3 dl of soaked cashew nuts
1 green pepper, seeds removed
1 jalapeno as a whole
1 avocado
1 lime peel and juice
1 tsp garlic
bunch of coriander
Hummus:
1 tbsp (400g) boiled/drained chickpeas
3-4 tbsps olive oil
2 tbsps tahini (sesame seed paste)
1 tsp garlic
2 tbsps lemon juice
Himalayan salt
black pepper
First slice the eggplant. Cut small incisions in the surface of the eggplant and add salt on top of the slices so that they start to sweat a little and liquid accumulates on the slices. Then wipe off the excess liquid from slices and place the slices on baking paper and baking sheet. Add plenty of olive oil on top. Season the slices with salt, garlic and rosemary. Bake the slices at 180 degrees Celsius for about 25-30 minutes until the slices are softened and cooked.
Next, prepare the hummus paste. Put all the hummus ingredients in the food processor and puree into a smooth paste.
Then prepare the cashew paste. Mix the cashew paste ingredients in a blender until smooth.
Heat the burger buns and cheese slices slightly. Next, assemble burgers. Place hummus, kale, slice of cheese, slices of eggplant, slices of avocado, tomato and red onion on top of the burger bun and, as a final touch, add fresh and hot cashew paste. Serve with vegetable crisps or sweet potatoe chips.
Enjoy!
