Nutrition per serve

Ingredients

• 250g butternut pumpkin
• 5g ground sumac
• 1pcs carrot
• 300g wagyu beef patties
• 50g sweet chilli sauce
• 10g toasted sesame seeds
• 2pcs white bread rolls
• 50g mixed salad leaves
• 50g aioli mayonnaise
• 15ml olive oil
• 5ml sugar
• 15ml white vinegar
• 10ml extra virgin olive oil

Method

1. Step 1 — Bake pumpkin gems
   Preheat the oven to 220C, fan-forced. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Cut the unpeeled pumpkin into 2cm chunks. Combine the sumac and 2 tsp olive oil in a large bowl. Add the pumpkin, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Put the pumpkin on the lined tray and bake for 20-22 mins until golden and tender.
2. Step 2 — Pickle carrot
   Meanwhile, peel the carrot into ribbons with a vegetable peeler. Put 1 tsp sugar and 2 tsp white vinegar in a bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the carrot and toss to combine. Set aside to pickle, tossing occasionally, until needed.
3. Step 3 — Cook beef patties
   WAGYU BEEF PATTIES OPTION Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a medium frypan over medium-high heat. Add beef patties to pan, season with salt and pepper, then cover and cook for 4 mins each side or until cooked through. Drain oil from pan. Add sweet chilli sauce (see cooking tip) and sesame seeds to patties. Cook, turning halfway, for 1 min or until glazed. Remove pan from heat.
4. Step 4 — Toast rolls
   While the patties are cooking, halve the rolls through the middle. Put on an oven tray, cut-side up, and bake for 5 mins or until lightly toasted.
5. Step 5 — Toss salad
   Combine 2 tsp white vinegar and 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the salad leaves and toss to coat.
6. Step 6 — Get ready to serve
   Drain the carrot, discarding the pickling liquid. Spread the roll bases with the aioli. Divide the patties and pickled carrot among the bases and drizzle with the pan juices. Sandwich with the roll tops and serve with the pumpkin gems and salad.
