Recipe | Peach & portobello mushroom burgers

Lottie Storey July 4, 2018

Guacamole takes this veggie burger to another level

Makes 6
6 portobello mushrooms
2 tbsp olive oil
3–4 peaches, sliced so you have two slices per burger
6 brioche buns
Rocket leaves, to garnish
Gherkins (optional)

FOR THE GUACAMOLE
2 avocados, peeled, stone removed and cut into chunks
Juice of 1⁄2 lime
1⁄2 red onion, finely chopped
Chilli flakes, to taste

1 Brush the mushrooms with a little olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. Add to the barbecue and cook for 3–5 mins each side.
2 Brush the peach slices with a little oil and cook for 2–3 mins each side. Slice the brioche buns and place cut side-down on the barbecue for 1–2 mins, until browned.
3 Mash the avocado roughly with a fork. Add the lime juice, onion and chilli flakes. Mix together.
4 Add a layer of guacamole to each bun base, followed by the rocket leaves and two peach slices. Top each with a mushroom, add gherkins, if using, and sandwich with the bun tops. Use a bamboo skewer to keep assembled burgers in place.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
