Do

Fry the veggie patties in a frying pan with a little oil, until cooked and a little crisp.

Grill the buns under the grill.

Add a slice of cheese to each pattie and turn the heat off, to allow the cheese to melt.

Place all of the fillings on the table.

Serve

Place a bun on a plate and add a pattie to the base of each bun.

Take the plates to the table.

Allow people to assemble their own burgers their own way. (I like to build my burger the following way: Pattie, cheese, white onion, mushroom, brown onion, tomato, beetroot, lettuce, dill dijonnaise.

Green goddess sauceis also a welcome addition. As is avocado salsa.

Build your burger with small amounts of fillings, a burger can quickly become unwieldy if its too big.
