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

  1. FABULOUS FRIES

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato on a roasting tray. Coat generously in oil, the NOMU rub and season. Roast in the hot oven until crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. MAYO DRIZZLE

    In a small bowl, loosen the mayo with water in 5ml increments until smooth but spreadable. Set aside.

  3. PERFECT PATTY

    Remove the patty [patties]|#7DA0D7 from the freezer. Place a pan or grill pan over medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the patty [patties]|#7DA0D7 until browned, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

  4. SIMPLE SALAD

    In a bowl, toss together ½ the green leaves and ½ the onions. Set aside.

  5. TOASTED BUN

    Spread plant-based butter (optional) or oil over the cut-side of the bun/s. Place a pan over medium heat. When hot, toast the bun/s, cut-side down, until golden, 1-2 minutes.

  6. BRING ON THE BURGER

    Place the burger bun/s, cut-side up, on a plate. Smear with the mayo, top with the remaining leaves, the falafel patty [patties]|#7DA0D7, the Tomato, the Cucumber, and the remaining pickled onions (to taste). Close up with the top bun/s and serve alongside the sweet potato chips. Dollop over any remaining mayo. Enjoy, Chef!
