Ingredients You’ll Need
To whip up these scrumptious burgers, gather the following ingredients for one serving:
60 g (2.12 oz) Italian tomato passata by Tesco
1 tbsp 100% natural classic yellow mustard by French's
5 sprays Light sunflower oil spray by Fry-Light
125 g (4.41 oz) Mince chilled frozen by Quorn
2 rolls Brioche burger buns by Tesco
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
80 g (2.82 oz) Sweet green peppers, raw
80 g (2.82 oz) Onions
These ingredients are not only easy to find but also create a mouthwatering meal that everyone will love!
Preparation Steps
Step 1: Chop and Dice
Start by finely chopping the onion and seeding and dicing the green pepper. This step is crucial as it ensures even cooking and helps the veggies blend well with the Quorn mince.
Step 2: Mix the Sauce
In a bowl, combine the Worcestershire sauce, mustard, brown sugar, and tomato sauce. This flavourful mixture will be the star of your Sloppy Joe burgers. It adds a tangy sweetness that complements the savory mince beautifully.
Step 3: Sauté the Mince
Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Spray with Fry-Light and add the Quorn mince. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until cooked through and soft. Season with salt and pepper, then add the diced peppers and onions. Cook for another 5 minutes until the veggies are tender and the Quorn mince is nicely browned.
Step 4: Combine and Simmer
Add the sauce mixture to the skillet and stir constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Bring it to a light boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes. This allows the flavours to deepen and the sauce to thicken to your liking. If you prefer a looser consistency, feel free to add a splash of water. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Serve your delicious veggie Sloppy Joe mixture on toasted brioche buns. The combination of a soft bun and hearty filling is simply irresistible!
