Ingredients
For the chickpea burgers
400g can chickpeas, drained
zest 1 lemon, ½ lemon, juiced
1 tsp ground cumin
¼ tsp cayenne powder
small bunch coriander, chopped
1 courgette grated
1 egg
100g fresh breadcrumbs
1 medium red onion finely diced
1 tbsp olive oil
4 brioche buns
4 slices of beef tomato
4 pieces baby gem lettuce
Pickled red onions
300ml cider vinegar

6 coriander seeds
1 star anise
1 bay leaf
3 small red onions, sliced into rings
Mint yoghurt dressing
1/2 cup plain yoghurt
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh mint
1 tsp lemon juice
Method
Pickled Red Onions
Pour the vinegar into a pan, add the sugar, sea salt, the spices and bay leaf, and bring to a simmer. After 1 min, check that the sugar and salt have dissolved. Remove from the heat.
Boil the kettle. Put the onion slices in a sieve or colander. Pour over the hot water from the kettle and drain well. When cool enough to handle, pack the onion rings into a 500g sterilised jar. Pour over the warm vinegar and seal. Cool, then chill and leave to pickle for 2 hrs. Will keep for 6 months unopened, or 2 weeks in the fridge once opened.
Mint Yoghurt Dressing
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl and place in the fridge until needed.
Chickpea Burgers
In a food processor, blitz the chickpeas, lemon zest, lemon juice, cumin, cayenne, coriander, egg and some seasoning. Scrape into a bowl and mix with 80g of the breadcrumbs and the diced onions and grated courgette. Make into 4 burgers, press remaining breadcrumbs onto both sides and chill for at least 10 mins.
Heat the oil in a frying pan until hot. Fry the burgers for 4 mins each side, keeping the heat on medium so they do not burn. To serve, slice each bun and toast, fill with a slice of tomato, baby gem and some pickled red onion rings and a little minted yoghurt.
