Serve with
- Burger buns
- 1 tin of cooked jackfruit

Method
Preheat the oven to 180C
Start by mashing the beans in a bowl (or use a food processor for a finer finish, which will result in a more homogenous burger mix)
Mix in the other ingredients and shape into 4 patties
Heat a glug of oil to medium high in a large oven safe non-stick pan and gently place the burgers in the hot oil
Once it is browned, carefully flip the burgers
Fry for another 5 minutes and place into the oven in the pan
Bake for 10 minutes to heat them through and serve
For the jackfruit, once cooked, pull apart with a fork
Heat through in a pan with the BBQ sauce and serve on top of the burger
