It’s a veggie burger night feast, Chef! A toasted bun is smeared with hummus, then layered with fresh greens, a crispy falafel patty, tangy tomato, refreshing cucumber, and sumac-pickled onions. Sided with golden oven-roasted potato fries, it’s a spoil-yourself, mid-week meal that will make you think the weekend’s arrived early.

From your kitchen:

FABULOUS FRIES
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the potato fries on a roasting tray. Coat generously in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
PICKLED ONIONS
In a bowl, combine the sliced onions with the sumac spice (to taste), the pickling liquid, and seasoning. Set aside.
HUMMUS DRIZZLE
In a small bowl, loosen the hummus with water in 5ml increments until smooth but spreadable. Set aside.
PERFECT PATTY
Remove the patty from the freezer. Place a pan or grill pan over medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the patty until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.
SIMPLE SALAD
Drain the pickling liquid from the onions. In a bowl, toss together ½ the rinsed leaves and ½ the pickled onions. Set aside.
TOASTED BUN
Spread plant-based butter (optional) or oil over the cut-side of the bun. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the bun, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes.
BRING ON THE BURGER
Place the burger bun, cut-side up, on a plate. Smear with the hummus, top with the remaining leaves, the falafel patty, the sliced tomato, the sliced cucumber, and the remaining pickled sumac onions (to taste). Close up with the top bun and serve alongside the golden potato chips. Dollop over any remaining hummus. Enjoy, Chef!
