\u2022 250g\/9oz courgette<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 1 x 400g tin of chickpeas (220g drained weight)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 1 egg<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 2 tbsp plain flour<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 3 tbsp breadcrumbs<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 1\/2 bunch fresh chives, finely chopped<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 2 cloves garlic, crushed<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2022 Salt freshly ground black pepper and smoked paprika spice\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

INSTRUCTIONS:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Step 1.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Cut the red onions into thick rings. Melt the butter in a frying pan with the sugar, add the onion and cook to brown and caramelize. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside, keeping warm.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 2.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Peel the sweet potatoes and the courgette, then grate both with the extra coarse blade. Set aside.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 3.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Drain the chickpeas and roughly crush half of them. Put everything together in a bowl. Add the egg, flour, breadcrumbs, chives, garlic, salt, pepper, and the smoked paprika spice into the bowl. Mix everything together.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 4.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Form the burgers either with damp hands (to prevent sticking) or with a burger-shaper, then rub a little oil on each side and cook them on a preheated prepared BBQ or under a preheated hot grill, turning. Once cooked, remove from the BBQ place on kitchen towel.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Step 5.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Toast the burger buns on the BBQ, in the toaster or under the preheated grill. 6. To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on the base bun, followed by a burger then top with the red onions, a slice of tomato, a generous dollop of the chipotle mayonnaise and top with the other half of the toasted bun.<\/strong><\/p>\n
