VEGAN BEETROOT & QUINOA BURGERS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put 1 tbsp of the rapeseed oil in a small frying pan and tip in the onion, cumin and garlic, then fry over a medium heat for 8 mins until softened and golden. Tip into a bowl. Add the cooked quinoa, beetroot, flour, flaxseed and coriander, and mix until combined. Season lightly. Leave to sit for 5 mins to bind.
• Divide the mixture into four - it will be quite loose - then, using wet hands, shape them into patties. Put the burgers on a lined baking tray and put in the oven for 15 mins. Turn them over and cook for another 10 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the salad dressing. Whisk together the beetroot liquid, lemon juice, yogurt and oil, and season.
• To serve, pile the rocket onto plates and place a burger on top. Drizzle over the dressing and scatter over the extra coriander.

QUINOA VEGGIE BURGERS

Steps:

• Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender and water has been absorbed, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Process carrot in food processor until roughly chopped; add quinoa, garbanzo beans, green onions, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, and cumin. Pulse quinoa mixture until just mixed; transfer to a bowl.
• Stir peas and corn into the quinoa mixture; refrigerate until mixture comes together, about 15 minutes. Form quinoa mixture into patties.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; fry patties until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side.
• Stir yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, cilantro, and curry powder together in a bowl. Serve burgers with tahini sauce.

QUINOA AND GREENS BURGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Either steam the beet greens for 2 minutes above 1 inch boiling water, or blanch in salted boiling water for 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl of cold water, drain, squeeze out excess water, and chop medium-fine. Place in a large bowl with the cooked quinoa.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium heat in a heavy skillet and add the onion and carrot. Cook, stirring often, until vegetables are just about tender, about 3 minutes, and add the ginger and a pinch of salt. Cook for another 3 minutes or so, until the vegetables are tender and fragrant, and add the cumin and the garlic. Cook, stirring, for another minute, and remove from the heat. Stir into the quinoa mixture.
• In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, or in a bowl using a fork or a potato masher, purée the chickpeas with the lemon juice and, if using, the egg. Add to the quinoa mixture and stir everything together. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Begin heating a heavy ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Seasoned cast iron is good, and so is a heavy nonstick pan that can go into the oven. Moisten your hands lightly and shape 4 large or 6 smaller patties. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan and, working in batches if necessary, cook the patties for 1 to 2 minutes on one side, until nicely browned. Carefully turn the patties over and place the pan in the oven. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until the patties are lightly browned; if they fall apart you can patch them together with some pressure from the spatula. Remove from the heat and serve, with or without buns, ketchup and the works.
