Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into wedges

Add the wedges to a baking tray with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a pinch of salt and pepper

Give everything a good mix up and put the tray in the oven for 20-25 min or until golden and crisp

Added chicken? Cook at 220°C / 200°C (fan) / gas 7 for 18-20 min

Step 1
2

Peel and cut your red onion[s] into quarters

Slice half of the onion finely and set aside, then grate the remaining onion roughly

Drain and rinse your black beans

Add the drained black beans to a bowl with the grated onion, ground cumin, Henderson's Relish, soy sauce and panko breadcrumbs

Season with a pinch of salt and pepper

Step 2
3

Give everything a good mix up until thoroughly combined (clean hands are the best way!), then shape into patties for per person – these are your black bean patties

Reserve the bowl

Add the black bean patties to one side of a baking paper-lined baking tray with a small drizzle of olive oil and cook for an initial 10-12 min or until beginning to crisp on the outside

Step 3
4

Meanwhile, slice your brioche buns in half (if required!)

Slice your cheddar cheese thinly

Dice your tomato[es]

Chop your coriander finely, including the stalks

Step 4
5

After the initial 10-12 min, remove the tray[s] with the black bean burgers from the oven and top them with the sliced cheese

Add the sliced brioche buns, cut side up, to the other side of the tray[s]

Return the tray[s] to the oven for 3-4 min or until the cheese has melted and the buns are warmed through

Step 5
6

Zest your lime[s] (try to grate lightly with a micro-plane or sharp box grater and avoid grating the white pith, as this is very bitter)

Chop the zested lime[s] into quarters

Step 6
7

Add your smashed avocado to the reserved bowl with most of the chopped coriander (save some for garnish!), the lime zest and the juice of half the lime wedge[s]

Season with a pinch of salt and stir it all together – this is your guasacaca-style sauce

Combine your mayo with a small squeeze of lime juice in a bowl – this is your lime mayo

Step 7
8

To build, top a warmed brioche base with a cheesy black bean patty, the guasacaca-style sauce, sliced onion and a warmed brioche lid – this is your Venezuelan-style black bean & guasacaca burger

Serve the burger with the wedges and lime mayo to the side

Garnish with the chopped tomato topped with the remaining coriander and remaining lime wedges

Enjoy!
