Notes
Variations:
1) For an ‘Aussie-style’ burger, replace chicken with beef mince, omit semi-dried tomatoes and parmesan and top with a fried egg, slices of beetroot and crispy bacon.
2) Looking to eat less meat? Replace patties with large flat mushrooms. Cook mushrooms for 2 to 3 minutes each side or until tender.
