This is basically a Greek salad, in burger form. We've got a sweet and spicy tomato, chilli, and kalamata olive chutney, a creamy tzatziki mayo, and homemade pickles to pimp up a frozen veggie burger. You've gotta try this!

Method

Start by making the chutney. Lightly char the tomatoes, chillies, and onion in a pan. Add to a blender, along with garlic cloves. Pulse until everything is cohesive, then add to a pan.

To the pan, add chopped olives, brown sugar, lemon juice, cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil then let simmer for 15 minutes or until thickened. Allow to cool.

Meanwhile, make the pickles. Combine the sliced cucumber, lemon, vinegar, dill, oregano, and salt. Leave to sit

For the tzatziki mayo, combine the vegan mayo, dill, lemon, cucumber, pepperoncinis, salt, and garlic.

Cook your veggie patties according to package instructions. Toast your buns in a pan, then build your burger. Start with chutney on the bottom, then lettuce, tomato (don't forget to season), veggie patty, vegan feta, pickles, then top bun with the mayo. Enjoy!
