VEG WITH A KICK
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the butternut pieces and the onion wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). Toss through the NOMU spice blend and ½ the chopped jalapeños (to taste).
PREP STEP
Rinse and slice ½ the tomato into rounds. Rinse the green leaves. In a bowl, combine ½ the avocado, the sour cream, and seasoning. Set aside.
TOASTY BUN
Halve the burger bun and spread butter over the cut-side or brush with oil. Place a pan (with a lid) over a medium heat. When hot, toast the halved bun, cut-side down, until crisp, 1-2 minutes.
CHEESY PATTY
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the beef patty until browned and cooked to your preference, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, top the patty with the grated cheese, pop on the lid, and cook until the cheese has melted.
ASSEMBLE
Place the burger bun, cut-side up, on a plate. Top with the green leaves, the tomato rounds, and the cheesy patty. Dollop over ½ the creamy guacamole and sprinkle over the remaining jalapeño (to taste). Side with the Mexican-spiced butternut & onion and the remaining creamy guacamole for dunking. Cheers, Chef!
