A very filling vegetarian option- good on the grill! Full of fibre and low in fat compared to a standard beef burger.

Ingredients[edit]

  • 240g drained chickpeas (from a 400g tin)
  • 100g frozen Quorn Mince
  • half a small red onion
  • 1 medium egg, beaten

  • Add the Quorn mince and continue to mash, to break up any frozen lumps and kill off the last whole chickpeas.
  • Dice your red onion half. Stir in, then sprinkle over the teaspoon of paprika.
  • Now for the wet ingredients! Slosh in the dash of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of teriyaki or soy sauce and the beaten egg. Stir well.
