Recipe By: Michael van de Elzen
Instructions:
Make up the harissa mayo first.
Toast the coriander, fennel and cumin seeds in a dry heavy based pan until aromatic. Crush in a pestle and mortar until well ground.
Dice the red peppers and saute along with the garlic in oil over a medium heat until tender. Place the peppers into the pestle and mortar and crush down until smooth (or blend in a food processor)
Combine the capsicum paste in a bowl along with the spice mix, mayonnaise and season with salt and lemon juice. Set aside.
Slice the eggplants into 1cm slices and brush with the oil and season with flaky salt. Place into a hot frypan or bbq and cook until well coloured. Set aside.
Pan-fry or BBQ the beef and capsicum patties as per packet instructions.
To Serve:
Layer up your burgers, by starting with the harissa mayo, then two slices of eggplant, a handful of rocket leaves and then the capsicum patty. Spoon a little more harissa mayo on top and finally the burger lid.
