The Recipes - How to lay out a Vegetarian Burger with mayo, relish, tomato, onion, cucumber and lettuce

 Making a burger in a bun needs to be layered out right. First you cut in half and toast slightly your bun. We like the large white baps ones. Then butter it slightly on both sides, then add lettuce, usually iceberg, and then cucumber sliced, then tomato sliced, here you can add a small dollop of mayonnaise if you like it,  then your burger and then finally your slice of onion and your relish. Red onion is also good on this. We also found a good vegan mayo called OMV burger mayo in a jar. You could just use this if you don't want to top it off with burger relish. Though i do like the tomato and onion one for relish. A good side plate of chips is always an option too! For the burgers we do like the Linda McCartney mozzarella, or plain quarter pounders. Birds eye also do a good vegetable burger with sweetcorn, carrot etc inside it too.

Here is the recipe

The recipes - Tzatziki

This is a real cooling, refreshing dish. You can even use fresh garlic instead of dried in it if you wish. Don't forget to put it in the fridge as soon as you have made it so it is properly chilled. The first time I tried out this dip was on my mum and her friend when i bought some onion bhajis. Her friend frank said he didn't like cucumber. Fast forward to the end of the meal and mum's friend picks up the bowl and said "Can I finish this off?" So I let him - even though I also had my eye on finishing it off too! This goes really well with the onion bhajis on the YouTube channel even though it is a traditional Greek dish!
