MAKES

2-4 

PREPARATION TIME

15 minutes prep + 20 minutes cooking time 

STEP 1:

Preheat oven to 175 ℃

STEP 2:

Blend all patty ingredients together and scoop out 1 -2 Tbsp per patty. Shape the patties with the help of extra flour, place on a baking tray and then bake in the oven for 10 minutes.

STEP 3:

Heat up some olive oil or coconut oil in a pan, add 1-2 patties while baking, not overcrowding while frying the patties. 

STEP 4:

For the sweet potato ‘buns’: slice and wash the sweet potato rounds, place in a pot with simmering water and salt for 5-10 minutes until al dente. Quickly remove and drain before they get too soft.

STEP 5:

Heat up a pan with oil, sprinkle the sweet potato slices with sesame seeds and fry until crispy & browned on each side. Add seasoning and a drizzle of tamari before removing from heat. 

STEP 6:

Make the hummus by placing all the ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth. Keep in the fridge until serving time. 

STEP 7:

Assemble the bunless burgers by creating layers: first the sweet potato slice, then salad leaves, hemp seed patties, cabbage, vegan mayo, avocado, hummus, sprouts and lastly another toasted sweet potato slice on top. 

NOTES:

• Other vegetables can be used for the sweet potato bun, like portobello mushrooms, eggplant slices or crispy potato rounds.
• Other beans like chickpeas, lentils or butter beans can be used for the patties.
• Experiment with layers like adding pickled red onion, pickles and crispy fried balsamic onions.
