TOP TIP

If you don’t have leftover mashed potato, you can make your own, but don’t add any extra liquid to the potato otherwise the burger won’t hold.

Ingredients

  • 6 Baker Street Burger Buns
  • 3 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 400g mashed potatoes
  • Large handful of frozen sweetcorn
  • Large handful of frozen peas
  • Large handful of leftover carrots
  • Large handful leftover broccoli
  • 2 tbsp of vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp of chopped fresh chives
  • Salt & pepper
  • 2 tbsp of plain flour
  • 2 tbsp of grated vegan cheese (optional)
  • Vegetable or olive oil for frying

 

TO SERVE

  • Vegan mayonnaise
  • Few lettuce leaves
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced

Steps

  1. First make the breadcrumbs. Grate two of the burger buns into a bowl, or break them into chunks and use a food processor to whizz them into crumbs
  2. If you’re using fresh broccoli and carrots, chop them up finely and steam or boil for a few minutes until tender but not soft, then drain and cool in a sieve under cold water. Allow to drain thoroughly.
  3. Make sure the frozen vegetables are well defrosted and well drained
  4. Tip the mashed potato into a large bowl with the sweetcorn, peas, carrots, broccoli, 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise and the chives. Season with salt, pepper and stir.
  5. Add the flour, grated vegan cheese (if using) and a small handful of the breadcrumbs.
  6. Add a drizzle of oil to a large frying pan and add the spring onions.
  7. Soften for a minute over medium heat then stir into the potato and vegetable mixture. Cover the bowl and pop in the fridge for half an hour
  8. Divide the mixture into 4 patties and carefully coat in the breadcrumbs. The patties will be quite soft so handle gently
  9. Add a couple of tablespoons of oil to the frying pan and add the patties. Fry over medium heat for about 5 minutes then turn and fry on the other side until golden brown, and piping hot in the middle
  10. Meanwhile lightly toast 4 buns according to the pack instructions then add a little mayonnaise and some lettuce to each bun base.
  11. Top with a vegetable patty and a few slices of tomato. Add a little sweet chilli sauce or sriracha if you like then pop on the lids
