So today is a big day. Very exciting, I've got an event on. I've got to cook for a bunch of people
I've got to come up with a dish that is delicious, surprising, colourful, handheld!
So I've got to do a load of shopping, get out and about town
It's gonna be brilliant! But I've got to get going
Oh! And by the way, it's a little bit like the old days in 'The Naked Chef'
Thanks mate! Lovely, and I'll take all of that! Thank you very much!
Thank very much mate! All the very best!
Thank you very much! I'll see you later!
I’ve got a bit of time, so I’m gonna see just what this new Range Rover Evoque can do.
And I know just the place!
That was pretty epic, but now it’s time to get back to business
and I haven’t got long before people start to arrive
Right guys, so we're in a really cool warehouse, doing a Range Rover event
in East London, just off Brick Lane.
So I've embraced those flavours of Brick Lane which is; India and Bangladesh
And I think I've got for you one of the very best veggie burgers ever!
It's the Bhaji burger! Full of colour, full of life!
Whether you eat meat or not, you're gonna love this!
We're gonna take some onions, carrot, squash
My inspiration came from an onion bhaji but we're gonna load it, load it with flavour !
We're gonna take a carrot and do nice long strokes.
I'm using a butternut squash and you can
And you can just break that in as well. So let's get all that veg in there and now paneer is
basically an Indian cheese, but you could use halloumi but the paneer is really good!
Look out for it, it's fantastic!
Just two level teaspoons of cumin go in
The next spice is turmeric; two of those
Two cloves of garlic and then ginger
A thumb-sized piece of ginger
The last two things I want to add flavour-wise; a chilli
So we do want a little bit of a kick and then a nice little wedge of coriander
Now we're gonna bind this with some flour. So I'm gonna use gram flour.
Season it with some nice sea salt and a little swig of water
And we're gonna mix it up!
And that, my friends, is perfect! And then you can pat them out into little patties
I've also got my hand quite messy now but just a little bit of oil in a pan
And then we'll go in with this nice little patty
I'll cook two, but you can do them in batches and they'll be lovely
So if we kind of get back to that whole kind of vibe about a burger, right!
You'd normally have some mayonnaise
So I'm gonna do, kind of do my sort of Indian version of that, with a coriander yoghurt
Get a pestle and mortar, a little pinch of salt and have a smash-up
Just put the yoghurt in here and I'm just gonna muddle it in.
So look at that colour. Absolutely beautiful!
Okay, let's have a little check of the fritters.
One, two, three !
And what's lovely you get the golden on the outside,
and on the inside it's just luminous yellow
And then I want some more crunch, some more freshness
So I've got a nice gem lettuce here
And in there's one last bit; poppadoms!
Snap them and then kind of crumble them up like that
Now got these buns, these are spongy white rolls, which is exactly what I wanted
I want to put the coriander yogurt in on both sides and then we're gonna dust that with the poppadoms
It's gonna be crazy good! Let's take one of my patties
We're gonna go straight on there with some mango chutney, a whole load of lettuce and some corianders
Just a few more chilies just to remind them
And then the last bit on top; like that!
And that my friends is one hell of a mouthful!
That's probably the best veggie burger I've ever had
It's full of flavour, full of texture, it looks crazy!
And I reckon Range Rover and all the guests are gonna love it
Right let's have a clean down and let's cook some more!
Hopefully, I've got your tastebuds ready for some flavours!
This young lady: There you go!
Can I do one for you?
You're welcome my friend
Ciao guys! Thank you very much!
