Choose your portion size.
FRAGRANT Butternut
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Butternut 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 and the baby marrow rounds 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
Place the seeds in a nonstick 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. Set the seeds and hummus aside for serving.
LOOKING GOOD...
When the Butternut reaches the halfway mark, remove from the oven and give it a shift. Scatter over the lentils and the baby marrow rounds, 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 butternut 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 2-3 minutes per side until golden. Remove from the heat on completion and allow to rest in the pan for 2-3 minutes before serving.
JUST BEFORE SERVING
In a bowl, combine the crispy Lentils, the roasted Butternut and the baby marrow.
