Transfer mixture into a bowl. In a separate food processor bowl, pulse together the toasted walnuts, oats, almond flour and salt. Add the oats mixture to the chickpea mixture and combine using your hands, making sure all the ingredients are well incorporated. Line a baking tray with baking paper. <\/p>\n<p>Shape the chickpea mixture into six burger patties and lay them on the baking tray. Cover with another layer of baking paper and refrigerate for one hour. (This helps them firm up). Heat a large non-stick pan on medium to high heat. Add two tablespoons of oil. Once pan is hot, cook the patties for eight minutes on each side, flipping them slowly and carefully.<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>For the coconut onion rings:<\/strong><\/span> Fill a pot with oil and heat on medium heat. Slice onions into one centimetre rings and place in a bowl of ice water. In a separate bowl combine cornflour, salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, eggs and milk until smooth. In another bowl, place the desiccated coconut. Once the mixture is ready, remove onion rings from ice water and pat dry. In batches, coat the rings with the cornflour mixture, then the coconut. Set aside on baking paper. Once all coated, make sure oil isn\u2019t too hot (otherwise it will burn the rings). Cook the onion rings three minutes on each side. Set aside once all is cooked.<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>For the garlic and herb sauce:<\/strong><\/span> Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well.<\/p>\n<p><span><strong>To serve:<\/strong><\/span> Toast the buttered hamburger buns in a pan. Slice tomatoes thinly. Spread the yoghurt sauce on the bottom bun, then place lettuce, two tomato slices, chickpea patty, two onion rings and more yoghurt sauce and cover with top bun. Serve with sweet potato fries.<\/p>\n<div contenteditable=\"false\" data-embed24=\"InfoBlock\" data-pos=\"left\" id=\"embed_b9b8cef5\">\n<div class=\"heading\">Jalapeno and cream cheese stuffed beef burgers<\/div>\n<div class=\"text\">\n<p>Chef Sharon Visagie is a lecturer at Capsicum Culinary Studio\u2019s Durban campus.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Ingredients:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>180g jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped<\/p>\n<p>Handful of coriander leaves, washed &#038; chopped<\/p>\n<p>1 small red onion, finely chopped<\/p>\n<p>225g medium fat cream cheese<\/p>\n<p>900g lean beef<\/p>\n<p>8 fresh burger buns<\/p>\n<p>Lettuce and tomato slices to dress<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration:underline;\">Method:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Pre-heat a grill pan on medium heat.

Once cooked through add the basil and then turn off the heat and let the relish develop its flavours. <\/p>\n<p>Remove patties from the fridge, brush with oil and cook to preference in a griddle pan or on the braai (brushing the patty with oil rather than putting the oil into the pan will avoid splatter). <\/p>\n<p>Once cooked to preference, top your patties with the grated cheese and melt in the oven or cover the pan with a lid for a few minutes. Once patties are cooked let them rest for about 2 to 3 minutes before building your burger. <\/p>\n<p>Toast burger buns then spread with the mustard mayo.
