Instructions:
- Slice Lizza Low Carb Toast Squares and grill them on a hot griddle until they’re well toasted.
- Spread Lizza Bell Pepper Ginger Spread on one side of the toast squares. Then half a handful of rocket leaves on top.
- To make zucchini patty, grate zucchini and carrots in a bowl. Sprinkle salt in the bowl and let it sit for 15 minutes so that the salt can draw out the moisture from these veggies.
- Squeeze out the liquid from the grated zucchini and carrot and drain out the excess water.
- Add all other ingredients like chopped parsley, flax meal, flour, egg substitute, salt, pepper, chilli powder and mix well.
- Mould the mixture into patties and grill on both sides to cook evenly.
- To finish the burger, top the slice with bell pepper spread with cooked zucchini patty.
- Add a dollop of bell pepper ginger spread on top of the zucchini patty as well and top the burger with the second side of the toasty.
Tip: You can also spread goat cheese on top of the patty in this burger. Alternatively, add vegan cashew cream.
