Instructions
1. Prepare the Beetroot Patties:
In a small bowl, mix ground flaxseed and water to create a flax egg. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes until it thickens.
In a large mixing bowl, combine grated beetroots, mashed chickpeas, chopped onion, minced garlic, breadcrumbs, and the flax egg.
Add cumin powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Heat B-well Canola and Olive Oil Blend in a pan over medium heat.
Form the mixture into patties and cook each patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are crispy and cooked through.
2. Prepare the Falafel Patties:
In a food processor, combine soaked chickpeas, chopped onion, minced garlic, parsley, cilantro, ground cumin, ground coriander, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Pulse until the mixture is coarse but holds together when pressed.
Form the mixture into patties.
Heat B-well Canola and Olive Oil Blend in a pan over medium heat.
Cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
3. Assemble the Burger:
Toast the sesame burger buns lightly.
Spread a generous amount of B-well Thick and Creamy Mayonnaise on both the top and bottom halves of the buns.
Place a beetroot patty on the bottom bun, followed by a slice of vegan cheese.
Add a lettuce leaf on top of the cheese.
Place a falafel patty on top of the lettuce, followed by another slice of vegan cheese.
Top with sliced tomatoes and sprouts or microgreens.
Place the top bun on the burger.
4. Serve:
Serve the double vegan burgers immediately, with extra B-well Thick and Creamy Mayonnaise on the side if desired.
