Method:

  1. Drain two tins of kidney beans, reserving 2 tablespoons of the water from the tin. Add the bean water and the beans to a bowl, along with a finely chopped red onion, a teaspoon and a half of both cumin and paprika, salt, pepper and olive oil. Add 4 tablespoons of breadcrumbs, a tablespoon of coriander stalks and then mash everything together.
  2. Form your mash into a lump, divide into 4 and mould into patties. Add to a piece of baking paper on a baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and place in oven for 25 minutes, turning after 17 minutes to ensure equal browning.
  3. Cooling yog sauce time. Add your yogurt to a bowl with 3 chopped spring onions, the zest and juice of a lime and a handful of chopped coriander. Mix everything together.
  4. Slice up your avocados and toast your buns.
  5. Assembly time. Dollop on some coconut yogurt sauce. Then add your burger. Top with avocado, more yoghurt and then the bun. Take a huge bite and enjoy.
