Ingredients

  • 1 medium cauliflower, chopped
  • 250g chickpeas, drained
  • 340g oat flakes
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 tbsp mustard
  • 1 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Cracked pepper, to taste
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup flour
  • 2 cups cornflakes, roughly chopped

For the Filling:

  • 1 tomato, sliced
  • Gherkins, sliced
  • Lettuce leaves
  • Mayonnaise
  • Tabasco or your favourite hot sauce

Method

  1. Cook the Cauliflower: Boil the cauliflower until tender. Drain and let it cool.
  2. Mash the Base: In a large bowl, mash the cooked cauliflower and chickpeas until it forms a rough paste.
  3. Season the Mix: Add oat flakes, tomato paste, mustard, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Set Up Your Coating: Arrange three plates—one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with chopped cornflakes.
  5. Coat the Patties: Form patties from the cauliflower mixture. Dip each patty in flour, then egg, and finally in the cornflakes to coat.
  6. Cook the Patties: Pan-fry the patties until golden and crispy. Then transfer to a preheated oven at 180°C and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  7. Assemble the Burgers: Serve the crispy patties on buns with tomato slices, gherkins, lettuce, a dollop of mayonnaise, and a splash of hot sauce.
