METHOD

  • Bake the sweet potatoes at 180ºC for 40mins and leave to cool completely.
  • Scoop the soft flesh from the sweet potatoes and place in a bowl with the black beans. Using a stick blender roughly mash together leaving some of the beans rough for extra texture. Add the rest of the ingredients except for the cornflour, season and mix well. Divide the mix into 4 and shape into balls, roll each in the cornflour dusting of the excess.
  • Heat a griddle or frying pan, lightly toast each bun and set aside. Heat 1tbsp of oil in the pan and add the burgers, squashing them down with a spatula into patties. Cook them for 2 mins over a medium high heat then flip. Top each with a Nurishh Cheddar Flavour Slices then immediately cover the pan with a lid or a large heatproof bowl. Cook for another 2mins until the Cheddar Flavour Slice has melted and the burger is crisp on the outside.
  • Mix together the chipotle with the vegan mayo. Layer the bottom bun with onions and lettuce then the burger, avocado and top with chipotle mayo and the top of the bun.
