    Quick pickled red onions

    To serve

    3

    CUT the rolls in half and, in a hot dry frying pan, toast them cut-side down until golden and crisp.

    4

    COOK the veggie burger patties according to package directions, basting them with barbecue sauce as you go.

    5

    LAYER each element onto the burger buns, starting with a generous dollop of mayo, followed by the veggie patty, some pickled onions, parsley, slaw and gherkin slices. Finish with another spoonful of mayo and seal with the bun.

    6

    SERVE your veggie burgers with extra Sriracha mayo and a side salad.

    Notes

    Make your own Sriracha mayo by mixing together ½ cup mayonnaise, 1 ½ tablespoon Sriracha sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Use store-bought pickled onions for your veggie burgers if you are short on time.
