Ingredients

– 150g broccoli โ€“ adds fiber and a mild, veggie-forward flavor

– 500g turkey breast mince โ€“ the main protein base for juicy patties

– 100g (half cup) quinoa flakes โ€“ helps bind the burgers and adds texture

– 4 wholegrain buns โ€“ provides a sturdy, hearty bun

– 60g (quarter cup) hummus โ€“ creamy flavor and moisture on the bun

– 60g mixed salad leaves โ€“ adds freshness and crunch

– 2 tomatoes โ€“ juiciness and color

– 1 Lebanese cucumber โ€“ cool, crisp bite

– 1 tablespoon sriracha chili sauce, plus extra to serve โ€“ mild heat and bold tang

– Oil for cooking โ€“ helps prevent sticking and supports browning

Instructions

1-First Step: Steam, boil, or microwave the 150g broccoli until tender. Drain well, then cool it down before chopping.

2-Second Step: Finely chop the cooled broccoli. In a medium bowl, combine chopped broccoli, 500g turkey breast mince, 100g quinoa flakes, 3 long green onions, and one egg.

3-Third Step: Divide the mixture into 4 portions. Shape each portion into a 2cm-thick burger patty.

4-Fourth Step: Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Cook patties for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and cooked through.

5-Fifth Step: Lightly spray a frying pan with oil and heat over medium-high heat. Fry the remaining eggs to your desired doneness.

6-Final Step: Assemble and serve immediately. Spread the base of each toasted wholegrain bun with 60g hummus. Layer mixed salad leaves, sliced tomatoes, sliced Lebanese cucumber, a patty, and a fried egg. Drizzle with sriracha chili sauce and cover with the top bun.
