Why it's Low GI

Protein-packed chickpea-and-mushroom patties spiced with curry — a meat-free burger with fibre and slow carbs, in a wholegrain bun with a yogurt sauce.

Method

Tap a step when it's done.

  1. Fry the mushrooms with the garlic and spring onions for 2–3 minutes.
  2. Add the curry powder, lemon zest and juice and cook 2 minutes.
  3. Mash the chickpeas coarsely, mix in the mushroom mixture and breadcrumbs, and shape 4 patties.
  4. Fry in a non-stick pan for 3–4 minutes each side.
  5. Mix the yogurt with cumin. Halve a bun, spread with the yogurt and layer in a patty, tomato slices and lettuce.
