LET’S GET GOING
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the pumpkin pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ½ of the Moroccan Rub, and some seasoning (to taste). Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place the drained Lentils in a bowl, coat in oil and seasoning, and set aside.
MAKE THE SPICED PATTIES
Place the mince and grated Garlic in a bowl. Combine with the remaining Moroccan Rub (to taste) and lightly season. Wet your hands slightly to prevent the mince from sticking to them and shape into 2 patties of about 2cm thick. Set aside until frying.
BURGER BOWL BITS
Boil the kettle. Place the seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until beginning to pop and turn brown. Remove from the pan on completion. Place the Hummus in a bowl and mix in the pomegranate dressing (to taste). Loosen with milk or water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency and season to taste. Submerge the peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until plump and heated through. Drain on completion. Set the seeds, hummus, and peas aside for serving.
LOOKING GOOD...
When the pumpkin reaches the halfway mark, remove from the oven and give a shift. Scatter over the Lentils, spread out in a single layer, and return to the oven for the remaining cooking time. On completion, the lentils should be crispy and the pumpkin should be cooked through and caramelised.
FRY THOSE BEAUTS!
When the roast veg has about 10 minutes remaining, return the pan to a high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the patties for 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Remove from the heat on completion and allow to rest in the pan for 2-3 minutes before serving.
TIME TO DIG IN
Dish up the crisp roast pumpkin and Lentils next to the rinsed salad leaves. Scatter over the peas and top with the juicy beef patties. Cover in sprinkles of toasted seeds and drizzles of hummus dressing. Garnish with the chopped mint and the sliced spring onion. Divine, Chef!
