Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Cut your potatoes (skin on) into chips and add them to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
Put the tray in the oven for 25-30 min or until golden and crispy
Meanwhile, drain and rinse your black beans
Grate your cheddar cheese
Add the drained black beans to a bowl with your panko breadcrumbs, egg[s], ground cumin, half your ground smoked paprika and half the grated cheese (save the rest for later!)
Mash it all together until you have a chunky, wet mixture and all of the breadcrumbs are incorporated (clean hands is the best way!) – this is your cheesy bean burger mixture
Divide the cheesy bean burger mixture and shape into 1 flat patty per person
Line a tray with non-stick baking paper, add the cheesy bean patty[ies] to the tray and put in the oven for an initial 20 min until starting to crisp
While the burger is cooking, deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and slice into thin strips
Peel and finely slice your red onion[s]
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the sliced pepper and half the sliced onion (save the rest for later!) cook for 4-5 min or until softened
Once softened, remove from the heat and set aside – this is your fried onion & pepper
Meanwhile, add your smashed avocado to a food processor with the remaining sliced onion, juice of half your lime[s] with a pinch of salt and pepper
Blitz it all up until smooth – this is your guac
Meanwhile, add the remaining ground smoked paprika to a bowl with your mayo and a squeeze of lime juice – this is your smoky paprika mayo
Slice the remaining lime into 1 wedge per person and set aside until later
Once the burger is starting to crisp, remove from the oven and top with remaining grated cheese
Slice your brioche bun[s] in half, then add the brioche halves to the opposite side of the tray (cooking for 4 or more? Use two trays!) and return it to the oven for 2-3 min until all the cheese has melted and the brioche is warmed through
Spread a dollop of smoky paprika mayo over the brioche base, then top with a cheesy bean patty, a dollop of guac, the fried onion & pepper and top with a brioche lid – this is your cheesy bean fajita burger
Serve with the chips to the side and garnish with a lime wedge
Enjoy!
