Butternut BEAUTS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Butternut half-moons on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and golden, shifting halfway.
SOME PREP
In a bowl, add a drizzle of oil, the grated Garlic, the chopped Oregano, and seasoning. Mix to combine.
COOL CUCUMBERS
In a small bowl, add the vinegar, a splash of cold water and the Cucumber slices. Set aside to pickle until serving.
MUSHIE BUNS
When the roast has 15-20 minutes remaining, place a pan or griddle pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mushroom ‘buns’ for 4-5 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the mushrooms with the Oregano & garlic oil. Remove from the pan on completion.
PERFECTO PATTIES
Return the pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). When hot, fry the Beef patty for 3-4 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preference. Remove from the pan, place on a roasting tray and sprinkle over the grated cheese. Pop in the oven and roast for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.
BUILD THE BURGER
Place one mushroom ‘bun’ down on the plate and lay over the shredded leaves. Place the cheesy burger patty on top and smear over the mustard. Pile up some of the pickled Cucumber and close up the burger with the other mushroom ‘bun’. Serve the remaining pickled cucumber and shredded leaves alongside the roasted Butternut half-moons. Enjoy, Chef!
